Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups Frozen mango chunks (for that thick, frosty texture)

  • 1 large handful Fresh baby spinach (provides the color without the “veggie” taste)

  • 1 cup Unsweetened coconut milk or almond milk

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for a vegan option)

  • 1 tablespoon Chia seeds or ground flaxseeds (optional for extra fiber)

  • A squeeze of fresh lime juice to brighten the flavors

  • Honey or maple syrup to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Layer the Liquid: Start by pouring your chosen milk and yogurt into the blender base. Adding liquids first helps the blades spin freely and prevents the motor from straining.

  2. Add the Greens: Add the fresh spinach next. If you want an exceptionally smooth texture, you can blend the milk and spinach together first until no green flecks remain.

  3. Toss in the Fruit: Add the frozen mango chunks and your optional seeds or sweeteners.

  4. Blend: Secure the lid and blend on high speed for 45–60 seconds. If the mixture is too thick, add an extra splash of milk until it reaches your desired consistency.

  5. Serve: Pour into a tall glass. For that “pro” look, garnish with a few small mango cubes or a sprinkle of hemp hearts.

Why It Works

The natural sweetness of the mango perfectly balances the earthy notes of the spinach, while the yogurt provides a silky, indulgent mouthfeel. It’s a nutrient-dense treat that tastes like a vacation in a glass. Enjoy immediately while chilled!
