Piña Colada Earl Grey Smoothie
A creamy tropical smoothie that uses a concentrated Earl Grey whole-leaf infusion for a subtle bergamot-and-orange layer beneath pineapple and coconut.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Tea’d Greens™ Earl Grey, or 1 pyramid sachet
- ¼ cup hot water
- ¼ cup pineapple chunks
- ¼ cup coconut whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons honey, to taste
- Ice cubes
- Optional: 1 shot of rum for a cocktail version
Method
1. Make a concentrated infusion
Steep Earl Grey in hot water, about 80–90°C, for 5 minutes. Remove the sachet or strain the loose leaves and let the infusion cool for 10–15 minutes.
2. Blend
Add the pineapple, coconut whipping cream, honey and a handful of ice to a blender. Pour in the cooled Earl Grey infusion and blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Serve
Pour into a glass and serve immediately. Add the optional rum only if you are making the adult cocktail version.
Using a small, concentrated infusion lets the bergamot and roasted-orange notes show up without adding a large volume of liquid to the smoothie.
