Tips for this cucumber pineapple smoothie

Make sure you use frozen fruit – Using frozen fruit will give this smoothie a cool temperature, while also making it smooth, thick, and creamy.

Blend the chia seeds – Don’t just mix the chia seeds in after blending. To keep a smooth texture, blend the chia seeds with all other ingredients in the smoothie.

There is no need to peel the cucumber – Just wash the cucumber, chop it, and toss it in your blender.

Adjustments and substitutions

Add more lime juice for a bit more sweetness – Blend everything first with the recommended amount of lime juice. Then taste the smoothie and add a bit more lime juice if desired.

Use some plant-based milk to blend if desired – Instead of water, you can blend this smoothie with your milk of choice. Try not to use a milk with an overpowering taste though.

You can leave out the chia seeds – Chia seeds don’t change the flavor of this smoothie. They are added for their nutritional benefits, but you can leave them out if desired.
