Prepare all your ingredients by measuring out the frozen fruits, spinach, coconut water, Greek yogurt, and other listed components.
In a blender, add the frozen mango chunks, frozen pineapple chunks, fresh spinach leaves, and the peeled banana.
Pour in the coconut water and Greek yogurt to help blend the ingredients smoothly.
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture to enhance the tropical citrus flavor.
If desired, add honey for a touch of sweetness. This step is optional based on your taste preferences.
Toss in the ice cubes to make the smoothie cold and refreshing.
Blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is velvety smooth and no chunks remain.
Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness or lime juice if needed.
Pour the Sommer Smoothie into two chilled glasses, garnish with a small wedge of lime or a fresh pineapple slice if desired, and serve immediately.
