What you’ll love about this recipe:
Ingredients & Substitutions
- Kiwi. Use fresh or frozen kiwi. Choose ones that are soft to the touch so you know they are ripe. I used green kiwi, but golden kiwi will also work. Golden kiwis are a bit sweeter and less tart.
- Strawberries. Use frozen strawberries to make your smoothie thick. If you use fresh strawberries, you may need to add some ice cubes to thicken it up.
- Coconut milk. I used unsweetened coconut milk, but you could also use your favorite milk of choice, such as almond milk, soy milk, oat milk, or dairy milk.
- Yogurt. I used plain Greek yogurt, but you could also use any fruit yogurt or low-fat Greek yogurt.
- Honey. You could also use agave syrup, maple syrup, or simple syrup.

How to make Kiwi Quencher Tropical Smoothie Recipe
Quick Overview
- Place all ingredients in a high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour into a tall glass.

Step-by-step Instructions
Step 1: Peel the kiwis and place them in a blender or blender cup. Add coconut milk, yogurt, agave syrup, and frozen strawberries.
Step 2: Blend on high speed or the ‘Smoothie’ function until smooth and creamy.
Pro Tip: I used a blender cup and added the frozen strawberries first. If you use a regular blender, add liquid ingredients first and frozen ingredients last.

Rosie’s Top Tips
- Use frozen strawberries to thicken the smoothie instead of ice, which can dilute the flavor.
- Start with less honey and add more if needed.
- Blend until you reach a creamy texture.
- Use full-fat coconut milk for a creamier texture or light coconut milk for a lighter version.
Additions & Variations
Storage
This delicious smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, right after blending – the kiwi and strawberries give it the brightest color and flavor that way. If you do have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge and drink within a day; give it a good stir or quick re-blend before serving, since it will separate a bit as it sits.
