How to Make a Mango Banana Smoothie
Step 1: Gather ingredients
Mango – the star player. Mango is naturally sweet and zesty, making for a tasty smoothie every time.
The most convenient option is frozen mango chunks.
If you have a ripe mango on hand, feel free to use fresh mango instead of frozen. In this case, if you want that thick texture, use a frozen banana instead of a fresh banana.
Banana – pairs wonderfully with the mango, and adds plenty of natural sweetness and creaminess.
Milk – any milk of choice. Try coconut milk if you’re feeling tropical!
Greek yogurt – adds a creaminess like non other. Also adds loads of protein, healthy fats, and probiotics!
Optionally: add in a splash of vanilla extract to bring out the creaminess and complement the flavours of the smoothie.
In addition to vanilla extract, there are many other optional bonus ingredients that you can add to this smoothie to spruce it up even more…Add in a spoon of honey for a sweeter smoothie, toss in some chia seeds or ground flax seeds to boost the nutritional benefits, add a squeeze of lemon juice for some zest, use coconut milk or add some shredded coconut (tropical or citrus flavours go particularly well with this mango banana smoothie), etc.
Step 2: Blend!
Add all ingredients to a blender, with the frozen mango added last.
Blend for 30-60 seconds until thoroughly smooth.
Pour into glasses and enjoy your creamy and fruity mango banana smoothie!
