Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup ice
Optional Garnish
- 2 tablespoons shredded coconut, optional
- Fresh mango or lime wedges, for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the frozen mango chunks, unsweetened coconut milk, plain Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, fresh lime juice, vanilla extract, and ice into a blender.
- Blend Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed for 1–2 minutes until it becomes completely smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no chunks left.
- Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more coconut milk and blend briefly to reach your desired consistency.
- Taste and Modify: Taste the smoothie and add additional honey or lime juice to suit your preference, then blend again shortly to mix.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses, garnish with shredded coconut and fresh mango or lime wedges if desired, and serve immediately for best freshness and flavor.
Notes
- Use frozen mango for the creamiest texture without needing too much ice.
- For a dairy-free smoothie, replace Greek yogurt with unsweetened coconut or plant-based yogurt.
- Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder for extra protein.
- Add a small handful of spinach for extra nutrients without significantly changing the flavor.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, although the smoothie is best enjoyed fresh.
