Dragon Fruit Smoothie
August 10, 2026 · Recipe by Sunkissed Kitchen
A creamy magenta smoothie with frozen dragon fruit, mango, banana, and lime — from Sunkissed Kitchen. Five minutes, two glasses.
This pitaya smoothie is from Sunkissed Kitchen — Michelle Miller’s creamy blend of magenta dragon fruit, mango, banana, and a squeeze of lime. Dragon fruit is mild on its own; the mango and banana do the sweetening, and the lime keeps it bright.
CSA tips: Cube and freeze ripe dragon fruit (and extra mango or banana) so the smoothie stays thick without a pile of ice. If your fruit is pale or underripe, lean on the mango and a little extra lime. Almond or coconut milk both work; oat milk is fine too. For a bowl, use less milk and top with coconut, seeds, or whatever fruit is in the box.
