If you like Piña Coladas, then this smoothie is for you!  It’s essentially a coconut and pineapple smoothie with some greens added.  I go for spinach because that’s usually what I have on hand and I feel like the flavor is the most forgiving (mild) of the greens, but you could substitute in some kale, fennel fronds, or chard if you like.  I borrowed the name from Molly Baz of Bon Appetit, I think it’s fun and this is what I call this smoothie whenever I make it – but I didn’t want to claim credit for coming up with it!
