This Blueberry Coconut Smoothie is a great smoothie to serve for breakfast, or snack time. It’s such a colorful treat too!
I like to be a contrarian. When it’s cold outside, I make smoothies. You may find me during the heat of summer sipping cocoa. Maybe. I can. It’s allowed ya know? Whether you’re a rebel or not, even when it’s cold outside, a smoothie can hit the spot as a quick breakfast for on the go, a light lunch, or for an afternoon snack. And if you’re in need of lightening your intake up a bit, while this is a sweet treat, it sure is a healthier choice than a a bowl of ice cream, and it’s so colorful. It makes me happy!
When making smoothies we enjoy experimenting with different combinations of fruits, nuts, and juices. I’ve settled on a few favorites, especially this one: a Blueberry Coconut Smoothie. Would it be bad thing if I admitted that I’ve had one every day for the past week? Okay, maybe two weeks, but who’s counting?
Yeah, you could say I kinda like it. I think you will too.
Since this recipes calls for frozen fruit, you’ll have to keep working with the blender, stirring, and blending until smooth. I like mine thick. For a thinner consistency, add more liquid, a little at a time, until it’s to your liking. And of course, as with any recipe—especially smoothies—try adding other fruits or spices to make it uniquely yours. Cinnamon would be fabulous!
Happy smoothie making! Enjoy! And be sure to share any smoothie combinations that you’ve discovered. I’m a smoothie making machine y’all.

Note: Since this recipes calls for frozen fruit, you'll have to keep working with the blender, stirring and reprocessing until smooth. I like mine thick, for a thinner consistency, add more liquid a little at a time until it's like you like it.
Yhis looks gorgeous and tempting since it’s kind of hot where I live 🙂
Love the color of your smoothie and the addition of coconut. My kids love smoothies and we make all kinds. I usually include banana which adds creaminess (frozen sliced bananas make the smoothie nice and cold). Sometimes we make mango, papaya, and pineapple smoothies, strawberry banana smoothies, mixed berry smoothies. I was just about to make one with kiwi, pineapple and oranges.
Your pictures are freakin’ GORGEOUS, Amy!!! I mean, they always are, but it’s HARD to get a pretty picture of a drink…and these are STUNNING!!! Blueberry growers need to pay you to use them in their ads.
I do believe this will be my afternoon pick-me-up! Absolutely gorgeous recipe and photographs!!!
I can see why you’ve had one of these everyday. Gorgeous!
Oh that looks tasty!! I hope you’re training is going well! This is a good after run snack!
Blueberry and coconut is such a delicious combination. One that I would love to enjoy first thing in the morning 🙂
Well, yeah, there’s no rules that you can’t enjoy smoothies during winter. Let’s face it, even when its cold we sometimes get the urge to eat ice cream or smoothies.
I drink smoothies all year round and have been on quite a kick lately! Love the combination of blueberries and coconut.
Oh that looks sweet and lazy. Yep, a perfectly lazy for sipping and swinging in my hammock smoothie. Gorgeous photos!
Hello!!!
I love using Blueberries, Strawberries and Raspberries(heavy on the raspberries-all frozen) with just water(less calories). Blend them until smooth, then add vanilla protein powder and raw almonds. The Almonds add a great texture!
A *contrarian*…I love that about you.
I could dive right into that gorgeous glass and live forever.
This looks delicious!!

What a smoothie! Thank you!
The color of this smoothie alone makes me crave one right now!
Picked up the ingredients after reading this and made it when I got home from a work out. It was just what I needed, filling and fresh. The coconut wasn’t super overpowering so I wonder what coconut milk in the mix would taste like.
Thanks for the recipe!
looks and sounds delicious – is one I will certainly try !!!!!
i made this smoothie last night and LOVED it. i used plain coconut milk yogurt, and unsweetened vanilla coconut milk to enhance the flavor. i also used Naked brand blueberry pomegranate juice. so so delicious!
