My Pineapple Ginger Smoothie is a light and refreshing treat! It is filled with nutrients from the fruit, ginger and packed with protein from Silk Soymilk.
Hi guys! Happy Thursday! I have a treat for you guys today.
A smoothie that you will crave and dream about....
One that will totally push you through your next workout because it is so good.
It's my Pineapple Ginger Smoothie and it is now my favorite go-to post workout drinks.
The ingredients are ideal for post workout---->
The pineapple is full of vitamin C to keep you healthy.
The potassium in the banana can help with preventing cramps and soreness.
The protein the Silk Soy Milk is ideal for refueling and rebuilding your muscles. In fact, no other dairy-free milk brand gives you more protein! With 8 grams of heart-healthy, plant-powered protein and a smooth delicious taste, Silk Original Soymilk gives you plenty to love. And because Silk is plant-based, it’s naturally low in saturated fat and has no cholesterol!
And the ginger.... oh it is a magical root... It tastes so uber refreshing AND is a natural anti-inflammatory and helps calm your stomach.
So basically this smoothie has all the makings of an ideal recovery drink.
It's so good though, that you might want to drink it all the time.
Don't say I didn't warn you!
Switching to Silk is an easy, delicious way to start adding more plants to your diet. And like the plants Silk is made from, when your body gets everything it needs to be healthy, it blooms.

Love the use of fresh ginger! This sounds like the perfect post workout smoothie!
Tina muir says
ooooh I did pretty much this exact thing last week...but without the ginger....which I guess is an important part haha, but GOOD THINKING Julie! What a great idea, its a good anti-inflammatory, and tastes good too! Thanks for joining us 🙂
Dan Steadman says
we drink Silk all the time, put it in our cereals, etc. our almost 4 y/o has a bad milk allergy so this is great for him. We have all almost switched over to soy milk from Cow milk and feel great.
JulieWunder says
Awesome! I love it as well!
Lori @ TheHealthMinded.com says
I have been thinking of ways to incorporate more ginger in my life as it such a great anti-inflammatory food. And, I stumbled on your smoothie! Such an easy recipe and these flavors would be great together! Thanks for the inspiration.

Jess @hellotofit says
The weirdest thing I ever put into my smoothie was navy beans...not my favorite smoothie, but worth a try! THIS smoothie, however, looks amazing. Love ginger!!

My immune system is SHOT- I am sick and I could really use this right now! Though I'd have to sub out the soy for almond but it does look quite delicious! 🙂
JulieWunder says
It might help! Hope you feel better soon!
Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner says
I just made a pineapple smoothie too! Adding ginger interesting 🙂

It really look the flavor profile to the next level. My favorite one I've made in ages.
Stacie @ SimplySouthernStacie says
I second what Suz said! I can't help but think that this would be taken to the next level if you made it with the coconut almond milk!

Yum! That would be good as well!
