Fresh pineapple and dreamy oreos turned into a perfect summer treat! Who said milkshakes were boring?!
Oreos.
I have a weakness for dark chocolatey oreos so much so that lately we try not to buy them. At all.
Yes and we try very hard.
I know how sad it sounds but the truth of the matter is that they last for a day or two at max at our place and they are my perfect before sleep companion with a glass of chilled milk. I know what you all are thinking. You have been in my shoes!
So, onto this crazy good milk shake. This was out of the blue. Few days back for dinner, yes you heard me right, for dinner I made strawberry-oreo milkshake inspired from my strawberry-oreo ice cream. It was an instant satisfaction. I decided to make it again for you guys but then I saw this fresh pineapple sitting and I couldn’t stop myself from trying this weird combo. And glad I am!!
It tasted much much better than strawberry-oreo milkshake (Mind it: fresh strawberries and oreo milkshake was a total hit at my place!) with flavor profile being high up there. It is a perfect summer drink being a well balanced mix of indulgence and healthy.
Perfect for your 4th of July barbeque. I have noticed it goes really well with spicy foods as it complements it very well. But if you are like me, you won’t wait till 4th of July. Perfect evening snack or dessert treat.
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, chopped
- 1/2 cup almond milk or any fat content milk
- 3 scoops of plain vanilla ice cream or cookies&cream ice cream
- 4-5 ice cubes
- 3 Oreo cookies
- Blend it all in a high speed blender until smooth. I have been loving my blendtec and it yields a super smooth milkshake.

Thanks Ela! You are awesome always!
I am not so sure I would enjoy these flavours together as I am not big on pineapple, but I do love oreos!
Tandy, do give it a try though! I felt the same about pineapple but really enjoyed it here!
What an interesting flavour combo! I’ve never had it before but I’m really intrigued! 😀
Lorraine, give it a try! You will love it!
Ahahaha! Your post is great! I love your writing :)!
And this recipe sounds so interesting! I can’t have oreo anymore because I’ve benn gluten free for 5 years, BUT I loved them and I completely understand you when you said that they last only for few days :)!
And like you I need something sweet too before going to bed…sweet dreams means that you have to eat something sweet before, right :)?!?!
haha, I totally agree with you Ema!
this looks so good – I could inhale a packet of oreo cookies a night easily – maybe this is why I don’t buy them often – but I really like the idea of them in a smoothie – with berries sounds more intuitive but with pineapple sounds like something I just have to taste to understand – roll on pineapple season!
haha Johanna you need to give this milkshake a try!
Oh God this looks so delicious! My mouth is watering… Love you used almond milk.
I liked with almond milk better as it was thinner and much healthier!
Very interesting combination of flavors. I’m sure this is one of those you wouldn’t think to combine but taste really good together. 😀
Totally agree with you Cindy! Sometimes combinations you never think of ends up being crazy good!
Looks good! I would definitely make it with homemade paleo Oreos.
Thanks for sharing!
Wow homemade paleo oreos??!! Sounds delicious!
Hi Ami, sounds like a magical milkshake, I love this combination of flavors!
Thanks Cheri. Give it a try, you will like it!
Interesting combination. . Looks delicious though…
Thanks Arpita! Hope you give it a try!
I would never have thought to pair pineapple with Oreos, but I have to say, it sounds delicious! I have a weakness for Oreos, too — I can’t have them in the house at all!
Marcie if you love oreos, this shake is must try for you!!
What an interesting shake. I bet it tastes wonderful.
Thanks Maureen!
I completely support milkshakes for dinner!! I’m so intrigued by this oreo pineapple combo, I can’t even imagine what it would taste like. I guess that means I gotta make one for myself and see
Awww thanks Isadora!! Yes you should definitely make one!
