  • 1 cup crushed ice

Instructions

Directions

    Step 1: Add the Liquids

    • Pour the pineapple juice into your blender first, then add the vanilla Greek yogurt. Starting with the liquid ingredients helps everything blend together smoothly.

    Step 2: Add the Fruit

    • Add the frozen strawberries, sliced frozen banana, and pineapple sherbet.
    • Finish by adding the crushed ice.

    Step 3: Blend

    • Begin blending on a low speed for several seconds to break up the frozen fruit.
    • Gradually increase the speed to high and blend for about 45 to 60 seconds, or until the smoothie becomes thick, creamy, and completely smooth.
    • If needed, stop once to scrape down the sides of the blender before blending again.

    Step 4: Serve

    • Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses.
    • Serve immediately with a wide smoothie straw and enjoy your homemade tropical treat.

      • Tips for the Best Aloha Pineapple Smoothie

      Use frozen fruit. Frozen strawberries and bananas create the thick, frosty consistency that makes this smoothie taste just like Jamba Juice.
      Use quality pineapple juice. A good-quality juice gives the smoothie its bright tropical flavor.
      Don't skip the sherbet. Pineapple sherbet adds both sweetness and the signature creamy texture.
      Serve immediately while the smoothie is thick and icy.
