Description
This Mango Smoothie is a vibrant, creamy blend of ripe mangoes, yogurt, and milk—perfect for a tropical refreshment any time of day. It’s naturally sweet, refreshing, and packed with nutrients, making it ideal for breakfast, a snack, or a light dessert.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups ripe mango chunks
½ cup plain or vanilla yogurt
½ cup milk
½ cup ice cubes (optional)
1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
1 pinch ground cardamom or cinnamon (optional)
Fresh mint or mango slices (optional garnish)
Instructions
1. Peel and cut your mango into chunks if using fresh. If using frozen mango, let it soften slightly.
2. Add mango, yogurt, milk, and ice cubes to a blender. Include honey, maple syrup, or spices if using.
3. Start blending on low, then increase to high speed. Blend until smooth (about 45–60 seconds).
4. Taste the smoothie. Add more sweetener or milk if needed and blend again briefly.
5. Pour into a glass. Garnish with mint or mango slices if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use ripe mangoes for the best flavor and texture.
Greek yogurt makes the smoothie creamier and higher in protein.
Freeze mango chunks ahead of time for a thicker texture.
Start blending on low to help ingredients combine better.
Add liquid first in the blender to prevent ingredients from sticking.
