Method
- If using whole pineapples, peel and remove the core. Cut the pineapple flesh into chunks (save some to garnish).Peel the bananas and cut each one into 4 pieces.
- Put the ice in a freezer bag, then wrap it in a clean towel and bash with a rolling pin to break up the ice cubes.
- Put half the fruit, one tin of coconut milk and half the ice in a blender or smoothie maker and whizz until smooth.
- Pour into 3 glasses. Repeat with the rest of the fruit and the other tin of coconut milk. Pour into 3 more glasses and garnish all 6 with pineapple - and fresh mint, if you like.
