    • Vanilla yogurt
    • Coconut milk
    • Orange juice
    • Banana. You can use ripe bananas or a frozen banana.
    • Fresh mangoes or frozen mangoes
    • Ice cubes

    See the recipe card for quantities.

    🍯 Optional add-ins

    • Nut butters, such as cashew butter, almond butter, or peanut butter. Nut butter is a source of healthy fat and protein.
    • Leafy greens, such as a handful of spinach or kale.
    • Hemp seeds, hemp hearts, chia seeds, or flax seeds. These are a good source of protein and healthy fats.
    • Honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup. These are all-natural sweeteners you can use if you would like your smoothie a bit sweeter.
    • Protein powder. This is an easy way to increase the protein in your smoothie to keep you fuller longer.

    🍹 How to make a mango banana smoothie

    Follow these instructions to have the most amazing and delicious smoothie ever.

    First, add the yogurt, coconut milk, orange juice, banana chunks, mango pieces, and ice to the blender.

    All of the smoothie ingredients added to a blender.

    Then blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

    If your blender has a "smoothie" setting, use that for best results. If not, blend for 1-2 minutes or until desired consistency is achieved.

    All of the ingredients for the smoothie blended until smooth and creamy in the blender.

    Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately! The consistency should be creamy and thick. If it's too thick, add more coconut milk until it reaches the desired consistency.

    Enjoy!

    🥭 Substitutions

    Mango: One easy substitution is to use mango pulp or mango puree instead of mango chunks.

    Banana: Another tasty substitution is to use frozen fruit instead of fresh fruit. Frozen banana will work just as well as fresh fruit, making your smoothie nice and thick. Just be sure to add a little extra liquid such as orange juice or coconut milk to help the blender along.

    Orange juice: You can also use pineapple juice; it will have all the flavor of a tropical smoothie.

    Yogurt: You can use Greek yogurt or regular yogurt. You can also use plain yogurt, but you may want to add some natural sweetener. I love the flavor the vanilla yogurt adds to the smoothie, so no vanilla extract is needed.

    Coconut milk: You can use any milk that you like. Other substitutions are almond milk, oat milk, skim milk, regular milk, or coconut water.

    📖 Variations

    If you want to add a little sweetness to your smoothie, try using natural sugar such as honey or agave nectar.

    If you are looking for the perfect healthy snack or light meal, fruit smoothies are simple to make and easily customizable. Try some of these variations:

    • If you want to add a little sweetness to your smoothie, try using a tablespoon of honey or agave nectar.
    • If you're looking for extra nutrition, you can also add a handful of spinach or kale.
    • For a thinner smoothie, add more milk.
    • For a thicker smoothie, add less milk, or use a frozen banana and frozen mango.

    The beauty of making your own smoothies is that you can adjust the ingredients to suit your taste. So play around with different fruits and flavor combinations until you find your perfect combination!

    🍽 Equipment

    To ensure your smoothie is nice and creamy, you'll need a high-powered blender or food processor.

    If you don't have one, you can try using an immersion blender instead. Just be prepared for your smoothie to have a little bit more texture.

    🌡️ Storage

    After you blend up the most delicious mango banana smoothie, it's important to store it correctly so that it tastes just as good the next day (if you have any left, that is).

    The best way to store a smoothie is in a mason jar in the fridge. Tightly screw on the lid and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours.

    Pop it in the freezer if you want to save your smoothie even longer. Frozen smoothies will last 2-3 months, but they may lose some of their original flavor and creaminess.

    When you're ready to drink your frozen smoothie, thaw it overnight in the fridge or blend it up while still frozen for a super thick smoothie.

    🤩 Top tips

    • If using fresh mangoes, make sure they are ripe. You can tell when mangoes are ripe if they are a bit soft when you press into them. Red mangoes have a more fibrous texture but are sweeter tasting. Ataulfo mangoes have an almost creamy texture when blended, making them perfect for smoothies.
    • For best results, make sure to follow the recipe exactly. That means adding all the ingredients to the blender and blending until smooth. If your smoothie is too thick, add a little bit more liquid until it reaches the desired consistency.
    • You can also add a scoop of peanut butter or some chia seeds for an extra protein boost.
    • When adding liquids, start with a small amount and add more as needed. Of course, you can always add more, but it isn't easy to take liquid out once it's been added.
