Strawberry Mango Banana Smoothie
Ingredients
-
1 cup frozen mango chunks
-
1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (hulled)
-
1 medium ripe banana (fresh or frozen)
-
1 cup milk of your choice (dairy, almond, oat, or coconut milk)
-
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess and protein)
-
1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, if you prefer it sweeter)
Instructions
-
Prep the fruit: If using fresh strawberries, remove the green stems. If you have time, using frozen fruit will give you that thick, creamy texture seen in the picture.
-
Combine: Place the banana, strawberries, mango, and yogurt into a high-speed blender.
-
Add liquid: Pour in your milk of choice.
-
Blend: Start on a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until completely smooth.
-
Adjust: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more milk. If it’s too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks or a couple of ice cubes.
-
Serve: Pour into glasses and garnish with fresh mango dice and a strawberry slice, just like in your photo!
Tips for the Perfect Texture
-
Frozen is better: Using frozen fruit instead of ice ensures the flavor doesn’t get watered down.
-
Order matters: Always put your liquid in the blender first. This helps the blades move freely and prevents the fruit from getting stuck at the bottom.
