Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups frozen mango chunks
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup milk (dairy, almond, oat, or your favorite)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (optional, but recommended)
  • Ice cubes, if needed for a thicker smoothie

Method
 

  1. Add the frozen mango, banana, Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, honey (if using), and lime juice to a high-powered blender.
  2. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.
  3. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again. If it's too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks or a handful of ice.
  4. Pour into two glasses and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh mango slices, a lime wedge, or a sprinkle of toasted coconut if desired.

Notes

  • Frozen mango creates the thickest, creamiest texture without needing much ice.
  • Use a frozen banana for an extra frosty smoothie.
  • For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder or an extra ¼ cup of Greek yogurt.
  • Make it dairy-free by using your favorite plant-based milk and dairy-free yogurt.
  • This smoothie is best enjoyed right after blending for the freshest flavor and texture.
