Its dairy free. Used coconut milk in it. Mixed taste of mango pineapple, coconut milk and a dash of cinnamon made this smoothie super yummy. A perfect drink for fasting days.

So this smoothie is not only delicious, refreshing and filling but its healthy too. You don’t need ice if you are using frozen fruits. But if you have fresh fruits add some ice cubes to make it chilled.
Recipe
Mango – 1 cup, chopped
Pineapple – 1 cup, chopped
Coconut milk – 1 cup
Cinnamon powder – 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon, optional
Honey or sugar to taste
Sliced almond to garnish
1. Blend mango and pineapple pieces in a mixer grinder.
2. Add coconut milk and blend again.
3. Taste and add honey or sugar to taste. My fruits are too sweet so I didn’t add any sweetener.
4. Add cinnamon powder if using. Blend again.
5. Place some ice cubes in your favorite glass. Pour the mixture over it.
6. Garnish with sliced almond and serve chilled.
Notes
1. You can use any fruit of your choice instead of mango and pineapple.
