    Two Main Ingredients:

    Watermelon: feel free to use fresh or frozen

    Pineapple: fresh or frozen pineapple works, based on the texture you want

    I used fresh pineapple and watermelon, but you may use frozen as well

    Just like you can make watermelon juice using fresh watermelons, you can also make delicious watermelon salads like this watermelon blueberry kale salad, watermelon mint feta cheese salad etc which makes great, simple, refreshing salads for any bbq or summer parties.

    As you know, watermelon and pineapple are both very colorful and delicious, juicy fruits with a lot of water content in them. Hence the juicy fruit smoothie made using watermelon and pineapple is colorful too with a deep orange pink hue from the bright reddish pink colors of watermelon and bright orange yellow colors of pineapple.

    The texture of this smoothie is more like a thinner juice consistency but you can make it more thicker similar to frosty smoothies by freezing the watermelon and pineapple slices prior to making the smoothie.

    Also you can use more ice cubes and reduce the water if needed to make the smoothie more thicker in texture.

    Why you'll love this recipe

    Easy to make: You only need a few ingredients to make this homemade fresh juice

    Refreshing Summer Drink: You can make refreshing homemade summer drink using this recipe, some times that's even better than store bought!

    A simple recipe to use any leftover watermelon or pineapple: This makes a quick, easy, simple yet delicious way to use any left over summer fruits like pineapple or watermelon

    is watermelon and pineapple a good combination?

    Watermelon and pineapple makes a great combination in drinks like fresh juice, smoothies, cocktails etc and also in salads.

    Both are very refreshing fruits that make a wonderful combination together in terms of taste and texture. I have also made fresh watermelon juice using just watermelon fruit, which is very delicious, refreshing, cooling and perfect for summer, and it is always one of my most favorite drinks ever! Watermelon mint agua fresca (Mexican drink), watermelon strawberry banana smoothie, dairy free watermelon strawberry smoothie etc are other refreshing watermelon drinks perfect for summer! I also have this colorful watermelon jam for summer, if you have any leftover watermelons to use up and if you are looking for new watermelon recipes.

    If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, I am not sure about using pineapples so it's a good idea to check with your doctor since many advise against using pineapples during pregnanacy.

    Also, make sure you do not have an allergy for pineapples if you are trying pineapples for the first time.

    If you are using fresh pineapples instead of canned pineapples, it is also important to use ripe pineapple to make pineapple juice since unripe pineapple will not taste good. You can read more about pineapples here. If you are fine with pineapples and if you love pineapples, then fresh pineapple juice made using ripe pineapple is one of the best refreshing juices that you might enjoy. Pineapple milkshake is another delicious drink using pineapples though not as popular as the famous pina colada drink! Combining pineapple juice with watermelon makes one of the most delightful and naturally refreshing fruit juice smoothies, perfect for summer or anytime you want a very delicious, refreshing and cooling fruit juice or smoothie.

    Watermelons and pineapples are both very high in water content and the flavors go very well when used in drinks or salads. Pineapples are also delicious tropical fruits, so if you are looking for a tropical flavored fruit juice try pineapple juice or this watermelon pineapple juice for a very refreshing drink!

    tips to make the best watermelon pineapple juice smoothie

    watermelon pineapple juice

    To make the best watermelon pineapple juice smoothie, please follow the below tips:

    • Make sure to use good quality, fresh watermelon and pineapple.
    • If the fruits that you use are not fresh, naturally the fruit juice or smoothie made using them won't taste fresh so make sure to always use good quality fruits (you can also use canned pineapples instead of fresh pineapples).
    • It's best to use seedless watermelon to prepare watermelon juice if you find it difficult to remove the seeds from the melon prior to juicing. This is because, if there are seeds while you make the juice in the blender, the seeds can get crushed and alter the taste of the juice. To avoid this happening, make sure to remove the seeds as much as possible (however if there is little small seeds, no need to worry much about it as you can strain the juice if desired).
    • Also, make sure to use ripe & sweet pineapple for the best flavor!
    • For the best tasting juice or smoothie, make sure to serve the drink as soon as it's prepared or make sure to serve it chilled!
    • Also use chilled fruits and chilled water to make refreshing & cooling drink!

    easy fresh fruit juice recipes:

    • peach juice
    • orange juice
    • plum juice
    • kiwi juice
    • strawberry juice
    • cranberry juice in instant pot
    • blueberry juice
    • pomegranate juice

    So here is how you can make this simple, delicious tropical watermelon and pineapple juice smoothie at home.

    variations & tips to make perfect watermelon pineapple drink:

    It's not just juice or smoothie that you can make with watermelons and pineapples. As I mentioned earlier, watermelons and pineapples make a very delicious combination. Pineapples are also the ideal fruit to give you the tropical flavor in your drinks and salads. Just like watermelon pineapple juice, other popular and delicious drink that you can make using watermelons and pineapples include mocktails and cocktails.

    To make the delicious watermelon pineapple juice smoothie more thick in texture, you can replace the chilled fruits with frozen fruits. Also use ice cubes instead of chilled water (you can also reduce the amount of water and replace with ice cubes for a frosty texture ideal for smoothies). If you wish you may skip the sugar or use natural sweeteners like honey or pure fresh maple syrup. Even a naturally sweetened smoothie from pineapples and watermelon without any sugar or sweetener still tastes great as watermelon and pineapple are naturally sweet fruits.

    Instead of water, you can use pineapple juice or watermelon juice in the smoothie along with ice cubes & frozen fruits to make the perfect watermelon and pineapple smoothie! I have other delicious, refreshing fruit smoothies like this mango orange smoothie, strawberry blueberry smoothie, mango lassi (Indian mango smoothie), peach smoothie with yogurt etc are so easy to make for summer!

    You can also make delicious tropical salads using ripe, sweet pineapple slices and seedless watermelon slices which will be very refreshing, cooling, snacks or fruit desserts for summer. Also you can add other fruits like strawberries to this juicy smoothie recipe to make it even more flavorful and delicious. Strawberries too go great with watermelons and pineapples and add great flavor to the juice or smoothie. So feel free to add a handful of strawberries to make a different flavor to the delicious drink, if you wish! Also, if you are making smoothies using watermelons and pineapples, you can add strawberries in that too, as strawberries are great for smoothies!
