Yummy! Had this for breakfast and used frozen fresh pineapple and vanilla soy milk, but no added honey or sweetener. Very mild flavor but still quite good. I like Toni's suggestion of a bit of coconut extract. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

All I need is a beach umbrella and this will feel like a Caribbean vacation. I didn't have soymilk so I mixed 1 tablespoon of plain nonfat yogurt and added skim milk to get the 3/4 cup measure to account for the fact that soy is a biot thicker. This was unneeded as the banana provided plenty of creaminess. I did not add sugar or honey as it was plenty sweet on its own. The result was a thick and frosty treat that was well worth 5 stars. To make it even more sublime, I added 2 drops of coconut extract. Yummmmmm. Glad noone else was around to hear my loud slurpping. Thanks Dancer!

I tagged this for a recipe game and printed it out. Then I realized I had mis-tagged. But never fear, I decided I still needed to try it! I agree with Roosie that this is mellow. I used canned pineapple and oraganic skim milk because I was out of soy. I tried it plain but felt it needed the sweetner called for. I used splenda. Once that was added I thought it was very nice. My 3 year old and I enjoyed it quite a lot. A dash of rum extract would be good too!
