My favorite thing about this dragon fruit smoothie recipe is the light, tropical flavors. This is a great way to cool off in the summer heat, celebrate a vacation morning, or just enjoy as a treat on your back patio in the sun.

This recipe is great for a variety of dietary preferences and is perfect for a delicious, naturally gluten free vegan breakfast option. If you're looking for other great smoothie or smoothie bowl ideas, you can try my Blueberry Spinach Smoothie and Green Citrus Smoothie as well!

Smoothie ingredients, half a sliced dragon fruit, half a sliced mango, bowl of sliced bananas, bowl of sliced pineapple, bowl of coconut water.

Ingredient Notes

Dragon Fruit: Also known as pitaya, is a tropical fruit with a texture similar to kiwi fruit. This article is super helpful and talks all about dragon fruit and some of its nutritional benefits!

Frozen Banana: Using frozen banana is my best and favorite secret to making a thick smoothie bowl. By freezing your banana before blending your ingredients together, your end results are much thicker, creamier, and perfect for scooping up with a spoon.

Pineapple: The pineapple in the recipe gives a sweet boost of flavor.

Mango: Another delicious addition of fruit, the mango adds more dynamic flavor to the recipe and brightens it up with bright, sunny flavor.

Coconut Water: I used coconut water as my liquid base to bring out more summer flavors. Feel free to swap for a nut-based milk, or a splash of coconut milk instead.
