Instructions

Add the unsweetened coconut milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen pineapple chunks, chopped apple, baby spinach, fine sea salt, and vanilla extract to the blender.
Add the ice cubes on top.
Blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35 to 50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check the consistency. If too thick, blend in 1 to 2 tablespoons additional coconut milk. If too thin, add a few extra ice cubes or frozen fruit and blend again.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use frozen pineapple chunks to chill the smoothie without watering it down. For a creamier texture, substitute half the coconut milk with plain yogurt.
