Look no further than this simple Mango Smoothie when you are craving something light and refreshing!
The flavor from the mango shines when paired with the citrus of the orange and sweetness from the banana. It is simple, wholesome, and downright delicious.
Ingredients Needed
- Mango: I recommend frozen mango chunks for this smoothie. Not only can you always find frozen mango, but it makes this smoothie so much easier to prepare. If you do use fresh mango, remove the pit and then cut into ½ cubes and freeze for 30 minutes for a creamy smoothie.
- Orange Juice: Oranges and mangos are a delicious combination, as the citrus really complements the sweetness of the mango. Feel free to use mango juice if you have it on hand for a more true mango flavor.
- Banana: Fresh banana adds sweetness and creaminess to this smoothie naturally without overpowering the flavor of the mango.
How to Blend a Smoothie
The best advice for making a creamy smoothie is to put the liquid ingredients into the blender first. This allows the blade of your blender to be able to spin efficiently and evenly blend together the ingredients of the smoothie.
For this recipe, I place in the orange juice followed by the banana and finish with frozen mango chunks.
Customize this Smoothie
- Instead of using orange juice, use mango juice for a pure mango flavor.
- For a creamier texture and in up to ½ cup plain non-dairy or regular yogurt.
- For a more nuanced flavor, use canned coconut milk for half of the orange juice.
- Add a zing to this smoothie by grating in 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger root before blending.
- If you would like a sweeter smoothie, be sure to use ripe bananas or add in 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
