3 Ingredient Pineapple Whip Smoothie
This 3 ingredient pineapple whip smoothie recipe is a healthier smoothie version of the pineapple whip frozen dessert you can get at the Disney theme parks. Fresh pineapple is blended with almond milk and a touch of honey for a delicious frozen treat.
I haven’t been to a Disney theme park in almost 20 years, but standing in line to buy a frosty, thick, frozen pineapple whip is a really vivid memory of mine. The fresh pineapple was blended so smooth and thick that it was a toss up whether to try and drink it from a straw or dig into it with a spoon. I’ve made several frozen drink recipes that I loved, like orange creamsicle smoothie, but nothing quite tops the fresh taste of a pineapple whip smoothie!
I get my fresh organic produce box from Brewer’s Organics every Thursday. Because I fill out the list of what I want, I’m always able to plan what recipes I’ll make with the contents every week. However, in yesterday’s box, there was really special surprise waiting for me. A perfectly ripe organic pineapple! When I saw it, making this pineapple whip recipe was the very first thing that popped into my head. Fortunately, I had some pineapple left over, so I think I’ll be making this slow cooker BBQ pineapple chicken recipe that I found on Pinterest. It looks SO easy and yummi.
I used a touch of raw organic honey in this pineapple whip smoothie. If you’re trying to cut back on your sugar intake, feel free to leave it out. I kept the sugar low by using unsweetened vanilla almond milk , so the tablespoon of honey really didn’t add loads of sugar anyway.
Are you ready to whip up a pineapple whip smoothie?
3 Ingredient Pineapple Whip Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound (2 cups) frozen pineapple chunks
- 8 ounces (1 liquid cup) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 tablespoon raw organic honey (optional)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into the bowl of a high speed blender. Mix on high speed until creamy and blended, about 2 minutes. Stop the blender and scrape down the sides of the bowl during blending, as needed.
- If you like a thinner consistency, add 4 extra ounces of almond milk and you’ll be able to drink this pineapple whip easily from a straw. Otherwise, use a spoon and dig in!
Whoever put that pineapple in your box did me a favor because I love everything pineapple and this is a use for it I’ve never tried.
It was such a nice surprise! I don’t buy fresh pineapple often enough… the taste difference is amazing! I hope you love this recipe, Karen. Thanks for coming by!

Thanks, Cindy!

Oh my gosh, Tammy, I bet the one you had in Hawaii was AMAZING!
Woah…this looks delicious, Chef Bec! I’ve never gotten an original one from Disney, but I’m fairly certain this version needs to show up in my kitchen…or better yet, my hand…very soon!
Thanks, Dave! Super thick, refreshing, and all-around yummi. Give it a try… I don’t think you’ll be disappointed 🙂
Sounds so good! I am a huge pineapple lover! One of my fav.milkshakes is pineapple.Could this recipe be made with reg. milk?
You can absolutely make it with any type of milk you want, Karla! Just use the same amount called for in the recipe, and enjoy!
