Put coconut milk, date syrup, turmeric powder, banana, and frozen pineapple into a blender. Secure lid.
Place ingredients into the blender in the order listed.
Blend until smooth.
Start the blender on LOW speed for 10 seconds. Increase speed to HIGH for a full minute.
Pour smoothie into a cup. Serve immediately.

If you don't like coconut milk or are allergic to coconut, feel free to use another milk. Non-dairy options include oat milk, soy milk, and hemp milk. Cow's milk will add more protein to the drink.
You can use frozen banana and fresh pineapple. The smoothie will taste the same.
Turmeric has a strong spicy flavor. If you're new to the ingredient, use ¼ or ½ teaspoon ground turmeric to start. You can add more if needed.
To make a thicker smoothie, use extra frozen pineapple or add a few ice cubes.
If you want to thin the smoothie, add a splash of coconut milk and blend for 10 seconds.
A Medjool date can be used instead of date syrup. Be sure to remove the pit and chop it first.
Keep leftover turmeric smoothie in an air-tight container, like a jar, in the refrigerator. Enjoy within 2 days.
