Expert Tips

Frozen Bananas: About 12 hours prior to making this Pink Smoothie Without Dairy be sure to chop the banana and freeze it, this helps to make the hot pink breakfast smoothie nice and cold. If your liking this smoothie definitely freeze additional bananas in a freezer bag that way you'll always have frozen bananas to grab.
Use frozen fruit: Frozen fruit works the best for this smoothie, it’s easier to blend frozen fruits in the blender and if you picked the pitaya smoothie bowl recipe the frozen fruit helps with making it a thick smoothie bowl, regardless of which you make be sure it’s frozen fruits you use.
Want Smoothie Colder or Thicker: Easily add 2-3 ice cubes to your smoothie or bowl if it’s not cold enough or not thick enough for your liking and blend again.
Homemade Milk: This smoothie is dairy free, if you’d like you can try using one of our homemade non-dairy recipes for this Pink Smoothie Without Dairy such as our oat milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, or almond milk.
Serve immediately: Storing these smoothies in the refrigerator isn’t something I recommend at all, the texture and taste begins to deteriorate if stored in the fridge, this delicious vibrant pitaya and beautiful pink colored smoothie is best to enjoy drinking right away.
