Blue Spirulina Smoothie with Fruits and Coconut Water Recipe

This Blue Spirulina Smoothie is a nutrient-rich, visually striking drink made with natural blue spirulina powder, fresh fruits, and hydrating coconut water. Spirulina is a powerful superfood packed with protein, antioxidants, and minerals, while the coconut water replenishes electrolytes. The combination of tropical fruits makes this smoothie not only healthy but also deliciously refreshing.

Ingredients (Serves 2):

  1. 1 frozen banana (for creaminess)

  2. 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)

  3. ½ cup mango chunks (fresh or frozen)

  4. 1 cup coconut water (chilled)

  5. 1 tsp blue spirulina powder

  6. 1 tbsp honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)

  7. 4–5 ice cubes (optional, for extra chill)

  8. Fresh fruits, shredded coconut, or chia seeds for garnish

Preparation and Serving Details:

  • Servings: 2

  • Preparation Time: 5 minutes

  • Cooking Time: 0 minutes

  • Total Time: 5 minutes

Method:

  1. Peel and freeze banana slices in advance for creaminess. Make sure pineapple and mango are chilled or frozen.

  2. Place banana, pineapple, mango, coconut water, blue spirulina powder, and honey into a blender.

  3. Blend on high until the texture is smooth, creamy, and evenly blue.

  4. Adjust consistency by adding more coconut water if too thick or extra frozen fruit if too thin.

  5. Pour into chilled glasses or jars and top with fresh fruit chunks, shredded coconut, or chia seeds.

Serving Suggestions: Serve in clear glasses or jars to highlight the vibrant blue color. Pair with granola or a light breakfast bowl. Decorate with tropical fruits like pineapple slices, kiwi, or blueberries for a café-style presentation.

Tips: Use frozen fruit instead of ice for a creamier texture. Add spirulina in small amounts—a little goes a long way. For extra protein, add a scoop of plant-based protein powder or Greek yogurt. Store leftovers in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 12 hours, but shake before drinking.
