This Pineapple Cucumber Smoothie is a healthy & fresh breakfast drink – dairy free & high protein! Rise & shine with a big glass of blended tropical fruits, refreshing cucumbers, and a few added ingredients to make this a filling breakfast or snack.
This smoothie can be made with fresh cucumbers, and is great if you have ripe pineapple you need to use. Pour yourself a tall glass of this beautiful smoothie, and take a moment to unwind.
This pineapple cucumber smoothie is a fun twist on a classic ‘green’ smoothie! I love a cold fruit & veggie smoothie in the summer to cool down – especially when we have a bounty of cucumbers from our garden.
This is a really fun smoothie, and has SO much flavor! The cucumber and pineapple together are such a refreshing combination, and it makes the perfect snack, breakfast, or sweet treat to enjoy after a long day outdoors.

Make Pineapple Cucumber Smoothies Without Yogurt & Dairy Free
This dairy free Sweet Cucumber Fruit Smoothie is a fantastic drink without all the dairy. I’m all about making recipes plant-based and dairy free when I can. Dairy-free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. You can achieve total richness and creaminess with some simple swaps.
By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family. I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegan recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meatless and dairy free meals for your table.
What’s In this Smoothie with Cucumbers?
- Cucumbers, Pineapple, Orange Juice – I stock up on organic produce with Misfits Market – they have a fantastic selection of in-season fruits & veggies, healthy pantry items, and great food finds for a fraction of grocery store prices! You can get $10 off your first $30 box by clicking here!
- Banana: add 1 banana or some of this great banana powder. We add a bit of this banana powder to smoothies, oatmeal, or baked goods –it’s great for a little extra sweetness without using granulated sugar.
- Ground Flaxseeds: I always add a scoop in my oatmeal for a little extra nutritional punch! This flaxseed meal has a wonderful nutty flavor too. Flaxseeds have a ton of amazing health benefits, so add a scoop to breakfasts, lunches, or smoothies!
- Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder – of all the protein powders in the world, this vanilla protein powder is one my absolute favorite! It’s simple, has just 4 ingredients, and tastes amazing with fruit smoothies. It’s not chalky and contains tons of plant protein to keep you going throughout the day!
