Strawberry Banana Smoothies are a go-to for good reason—they’re easy to make, always delicious, and use ingredients you can find year-round. This Tropical Strawberry Banana Smoothie Recipe is my favorite post-workout boost, keeping the classic flavors I love with a creamy coconut twist for a taste of the tropics.
Smoothies are everywhere these days—even fast-food drive-thrus have their own versions. While it's great to have healthier options on the go, making your own is the best way to control what goes in (and what stays out).
This Tropical Strawberry Banana Smoothie is my favorite post-workout go-to. It’s simple, made with real, whole ingredients, and gets a natural protein boost from hemp hearts—no powders needed. We bring the slight flavor of the tropics with the addition of coconut yogurt to the mix.

❓Are Fruit Smoothies Healthy for You?
So are fruit smoothies healthy for you? I will sound like a broken record, but we hear it constantly...everything in moderation. That isn't just to say the number of smoothies you have, but also how many different ingredients you add to them. As I mentioned above, by making this smoothie at home from scratch, you can control exactly how much of everything and what you are putting inside the smoothie.
I grew up with a mom who instilled healthy choices in me from a young age, so naturally, I think about these things before I even start tossing ingredients into the blender. I’ll always pick real, whole foods over powders or mixes any day of the week. Nature is packed with superfoods that offer antioxidants, fiber, and real staying power — everything you need for a smoothie that actually fuels you and keeps you feeling good.
✨ Healthy Smoothie Party Ideas for Brunches, Fitness Events, and More

No fillers here—just creamy coconut, fresh strawberries, and bananas for a deliciously natural treat that’s perfect for a smoothie party or brunch spread!
Real Tip
For a naturally creamy smoothie without any added sugar, freeze your fruit ahead of time. It keeps things cold, smooth, and flavorful—no need for ice watering things down.
