Pro tip: Peel and freeze ripe bananas ahead of time. This makes smoothie prep even faster and keeps your smoothie extra cold and thick.

How to Make a Mango Smoothie

Making this smoothie is incredibly straightforward. Follow these steps for perfect results every time:

1. Add the frozen mango, half banana, Greek yogurt, and milk to a blender. Start with less milk (about 1/2 cup) for a thicker smoothie.
2. Begin blending on low speed, then gradually increase to high. If your blender has a tamper, use it to push ingredients toward the blades. Otherwise, stop and stir once or twice.
3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. If it is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again.
4. Serve immediately. This smoothie is best enjoyed right after blending for the thickest texture.

Remember: start with less liquid and add more as needed. This is the secret to a truly thick and creamy smoothie.

Recipe Variations

One of the best things about this mango smoothie is how easy it is to change up. Try any of these delicious variations:

• Dairy free: Omit the yogurt or use a dairy free yogurt. Use nondairy milk or juice.
• Strawberry mango: Add 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries.
• Pineapple mango: Add 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks.
• Carrot: Add a handful of chopped carrots (use a high power blender).
• Cauliflower: Add a handful of frozen cauliflower florets for extra nutrition without changing the flavor.
• No banana: Omit the banana and substitute with another fruit like peach or extra mango.
• Chia or flax seeds: Add 1 teaspoon for extra fiber and omega 3s.
• Spinach: Add 1 cup fresh spinach. It blends in completely and you won’t taste it.
• Sweetener: Add honey or maple syrup to taste if you prefer a sweeter smoothie.
• Vanilla: Add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract for a warm flavor note.
