Just 3 ingredients needed for this delicious Coconut Berry Smoothie! High in potassium, vitamin C and electrolytes, this beautiful dairy free smoothie is hydrating and the perfect pick me up.
We love smoothies in this house. I especially love them because they are quick and easy. On school days when we are running tight on time, it’s easy to throw a bunch of healthy ingredients into the blender.
It’s a great way to get a lot of nutrition and still get out the door on time. Today we made a Coconut Berry Smoothie. The kids downed these in mere minutes and, of course, I thought it was pretty tasty too!
I used coconut water instead of non-dairy milk in this pink beauty. Coconut water is very hydrating and has an amazing amount of potassium. It also boasts plenty of electrolytes and minerals, making it a better choice than store bought sports drinks. Just be sure to buy coconut water with no added sugars or juices.
With only 3 ingredients, this Coconut Berry Smoothie couldn’t be any easier. The hardest thing you have to do is peel the banana. I’m pretty sure we all have time to do at least that. Throw it all in the blender and purée. Easy!
I don’t think I have to tell you how nutritious berries are, right? I used mixed berries in this smoothie – a combination of strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. This combo not only makes a nutritious smoothie, but a darn pretty one as well. I love that bright purplish-pink color!

Love a smoothie, especially in the summer. And, I always like to put a banana in smoothies, too. It makes them keep you feeling full longer. Great photos!
Jenn S. says
Thanks, Pam! I almost always add banana to smoothies for natural sweetness. The coconut water brings sweetness here too. Hope you enjoy it!
traci says
Love! I never thought about using coconut water in a smoothie, but what a great idea! Now you have me craving it for breakfast…thanks for sharing 🙂
Jenn S. says
It’s the only way I can tolerate coconut water. It’s so hydrating, refreshing, and full of electrolytes. But, I can’t stand the taste of it plain. In smoothies, though, you can’t taste it all. Just pure deliciousness! 🙂 Thanks, Traci!
Kristine says
Ooh yes! This is the perfect summertime smoothie. Berries and coconut water are the best combo! I can’t wait to try this recipe, thanks!
Jenn S. says
They sure are! Thanks, Kristine!

Jenn S. says
Oh, perfect! Thank you, Jessica!
Catherine Brown says
Mmmm, we love coconut water… esp. when it’s so hot! This combo looks so creamy too. I’m going to have to try adding coconut water to my next smoothie instead of just drinking it cold. Thanks for the idea!
Jenn S. says
The coconut water is so refreshing and hydrating! Enjoy, Catherine!

Sara says
I love this combo, anything coconut, I am all over, I really like the stainless steel straws, where do you get them?
Jenn S. says
Thanks, Sara! I got these straws from Norwex, but there are lots of choices on Amazon too. 🙂
Howie Fox says
I LOVE berry smoothies. They’re super quick to make and if the berries are frozen, then the smoothie is even cold. How awesome is that? 🙂
Jenn S. says
Yes! And if you use frozen, you don’t have to add ice, which waters down the smoothie! Thanks, Howie!
Linda @ Veganosity says
Everyday should start with a smoothie like this one. I love the coconut and berry combination. Great recipe, Jenn!
Jenn S. says
I agree, Linda! And because smoothies are so easy, every day pretty much does start out with one. 🙂
Audrey @ Unconventional Baker says
Mmm… berries + coconut are def one of the best combos <3 This looks so refreshing! I'd love to start my morning off with some 🙂
Jenn S. says
Such a great combo, right?! Thanks, Audrey!
Sina @ Vegan Heaven says
I love coconut water in smoothies. I think I made like the exact smoothie some time ago, Jenn! Haha! Great minds think alike I guess. 😉 I love using frozen berries, it’s so practical! Love your photos!
Jenn S. says
Great minds, indeed! Thank you so much, Sina!

So stoked for you that you are going back to do all this! I’m focusing on making long pins of my old recipes, new pics is next on my list. Too much to do and no time with 3 kiddos, LOL! Sounds tasty too!
Jenn S. says
Oh yeah, I hear ya. Because of these new pics, I haven’t made anything new…oops! I went back and did the longer pins for quite a few of my older recipes. I need to finish that up too because I didn’t get to them all. But, I figure when I take better pics, then I will do the long pins for them at that time too. Hopefully with school back in session and us getting on a more regular schedule, I’ll figure out a schedule for myself that works best so I can get more than one thing done a day. 🙂
