Smoothie Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or other milk of choice)
- 2 cups frozen mango
- 2 medium frozen mandarin oranges
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 medium ripe avocado
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients, ensuring the mango and mandarin oranges are frozen for optimal texture. If using fresh fruit, reduce the almond milk to 1–1.5 cups for a thicker smoothie.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the almond milk to a high-speed blender first, followed by the frozen mango, frozen mandarins, Greek yogurt, avocado, ground ginger, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
- Blend Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary. Adjust the milk quantity or ingredients as needed to reach your desired taste and consistency.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- If using fresh instead of frozen fruit, reduce almond milk to 1–1.5 cups to avoid a watery smoothie.
- The avocado adds creaminess and healthy fats, but you can omit it if desired.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup if preferred.
- Use a high-speed blender for the smoothest texture.
- This smoothie is best consumed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
