Best Blender for Fruit Smoothies
My new Wave Action Blender from Hamilton Beach makes smoothies in minutes. It’s a cinch! I want my smoothies to be, well, smooth. I don’t care for chunks, lumps, or anything else. This blender does a great job of making a smooth mixture in no time. The buttons are clearly marked, so there’s no guesswork on which setting to use.
Tropical Smoothie With Cream of Coconut
Cream of Coconut takes what would be a strawberry pineapple smoothie to the next level. It makes the whole thing absolutely tropical, and who doesn’t love that? It’s so simple to make – you’ll love it for the whole family!
Strawberry Pina Colada Smoothie
Feel free to change up this smoothie by using coconut flavored yogurt instead of cream of coconut. Or add in other tropical flavors like oranges or bananas.

Recipe Notes
Ice is optional though I love mine to be a bit slushy. Add enough crushed ice to achieve your desired thickness - I find this can vary.
What Flavors Make Pina Colada?
When you want to adapt this pina colada smoothie recipe into other areas (think pina colada cupcakes or smoothie bowls!) you might wonder what flavors make a pina colada. A pina colada is a cocktail made with rum, pineapple juice, and coconut.
Of course, if you wanted to add some alcohol for a grown-up treat, be my guest! I enjoy coconut rum the best with this.
