Reasons you’ll love this smoothie

• Healthy. This nutritious smoothie is filled with vitamins, antioxidants, fiber, and more! It’s also gluten- and dairy-free; you can bulk up the nutrition by blending in veggies or superfoods.
• Delicious. Juicy mango, sweet banana, and fruity berries create a smoothie everyone loves!
• Simple to prepare. Using frozen fruit brings this mango berry smoothie together in less than 5 minutes.
• Make ahead. Prepare freezer smoothie kits to have ingredients ready to blend every morning.

Ingredients 

Here are the ingredients you need to make a mango berry smoothie. I recommend purchasing frozen fruit so your smoothie is cold and creamy.

• Frozen mango chunks. Mango has a sweet tropical flavor that is so delicious blended in smoothies. It’s also a meatier fruit, creating a creamy smoothie with a thick texture. I much prefer to use frozen mango chunks when making smoothies. Fresh mango is delicious, but it’s a labor of love to cut the mango, and truthfully you don’t get a lot for the amount of work it takes. I don’t have the time or patience for that, so I purchase frozen mango chunks from the grocery store; it’s is readily available in all stores. I’ve seen small and large bags of frozen mango sold at Whole Foods, Wegmans, Aldis, and Walmart. So, it shouldn’t be difficult to find
• Frozen mixed berries. A mix of blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are in the frozen berry blend I use. Sometimes, I can find a brand that includes blackberries. You can find small and large bags of frozen mixed berries in all major grocery stores. I get the best price at BJ’s wholesale, so check out your local wholesale store if you can.
• Banana. The banana in this smoothie recipe provides another layer of sweetness, and I recommend using frozen ripe bananas to get a cold, creamy consistency. Here’s my tutorial on how to freeze bananas.
• Chia seeds. For extra fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, I add one tablespoon of chia seeds to this mango berry smoothie. 
• Baby spinach. Any leafy green will work in this smoothie recipe, but baby spinach is an excellent choice if you want a milder taste. You can find large packages of baby spinach in the produce section of the grocery store and wholesale stores.
• Unsweetened coconut milk. I prefer to keep my smoothie recipes dairy-free, and unsweetened coconut milk is my non-dairy milk of choice. It gives a creamy texture and healthy fats. You can also use unsweetened almond milk, rice milk, or any of your favorites.
• Filtered water. You’ll only use a little extra water to get your desired consistency.

How to make a Mango Berry Smoothie

• Place all the frozen fruit, chia seeds, spinach, and coconut milk into a blender and blend until smooth. 
• If your smoothie is too thick, add small amounts of unsweetened coconut milk or water until you get the desired consistency.
• Pour into your favorite glass and enjoy.
• Use less liquid for a thick texture or to make a mango berry smoothie bowl.

Expert tip

If you don’t have a high-speed blender, I recommend blending the spinach and liquid first to prevent chunks.

Substitutions

• If you don’t want to use bananas in this smoothie, leave it out and add extra mango. Mango provides the same texture as a banana; it’s just not as sweet.
• If you need extra sweetness then blend in a teaspoon or so of honey or pure maple syrup.
• Suppose you want more of a slushie consistency, swap in coconut water or orange juice, or use all filtered water instead of the milk. Use 1 cup to start and add more for a thinner consistency. Also, keep an eye on the sugar and calories when using juices or coconut water.
• You certainly can use all fresh mango and berries in this smoothie recipe; you’ll need to add 1 cup or so of ice cubes to give it that cold, thick texture. Keep in mind that this can also water down the smoothie.
• Use any of your favorite berries in this smoothie recipe. If you only have raspberries, then use those.
• Swap in your favorite leafy greens; kale and collard greens are great options.
• For extra protein, use a scoop of protein powder or collagen powder. You can also add ½ cup of plain greek yogurt or try ¼ of avocado.
• Blend in your favorite superfoods to add extra nutrition to this smoothie. These options include coconut oil, coconut flakes, MCT oil, hemp hearts, hemp seeds, and flaxseeds.
• For a spicy mango berry smoothie add in a pinch of cayenne pepper. Cayenne helps get your metabolism going.

Storage 

To store: You can store leftover mango berry smoothies in an airtight container for one day, and I recommend a mason jar for best results. The smoothie consistency and color will change, but it will still be tasty; give it a few shakes before consuming.

To freeze: Have mango-berry smoothie recipe ingredients ready for the week or month by assembling them (minus the coconut milk) into smoothie prep packs and storing them in the freezer. The day you drink the smoothie, toss the ingredients in the blender with milk and blend.
