What is a kiwi quencher smoothie
A kiwi quencher smoothie is a traditional smoothie you can find at the Tropical Smoothie Cafe chain.
Tropical smoothie is a restaurant that serves smoothies, sandwiches and other delicious treats. Their smoothies menu is amazing but can be somewhat pricey.
The kiwi quencher is incredibly delicious and it’s made with only 3 ingredients: kiwi, yogurt and strawberries. It has a deep pink and reddish color and a tropical flavor with a lot of added protein.

Ingredients to make a kiwi quencher
Let’s see what you need to prepare this tropical smoothie copycat recipe at home
- Kiwi: Honestly the total star of this recipe. You can use either fresh fruit or frozen kiwi. Both work just as well.
- Strawberries: These are the ones that make this drink sweeter and also give it it’s distinct red color. I usually use frozen ones since they are easier to find year round but just use anything you have on hand.
- Greek yogurt: Not only it makes this drink healthy and gives it a nice protein boost but it’s also responsible for giving the smoothie a creamy, thick and velvety texture that’s just to die for.
- Milk: I like to add a little bit of milk to my smoothie so things can run easily in the blender. You can use any milk you like. I have tried it with 2% milk but also with almond milk and oat milk. All options were just as good.
- Ice: A good smoothie needs ice.

This almost feels like cheating because it’s a no recipe recipe. You only need to add all the ingredients to the glass of a blender and pulse until creamy.

Substitutions and additions
What I love about Tropical Smoothie is that you have some fun mix-ins you can add to your drinks to customize them. Good news is you can also do that at home!
- Feel free to sub the Greek yogurt for a coconut yogurt if you want to keep it plant based.
- Add chia seeds. It’s a great way to boost up the fiber and also give it a nice texture flair.
- Mix in some ground flax seeds. Ground flax seeds are a fiber powerhouse.
- Incorporate some spinach: The great thing about this recipe is that’s so flavorful you can add some spinach and won’t feel it at all!
