9 Tropical Mango Pineapple Smoothie

Ingredients

fresh mango chunks
pineapple chunks
fresh banana
milk
ground cinnamon

The tartness of the pineapple and sweet mango juice create a delicious blend of flavors that make you feel like you’re on a tropical island. And at the same time, provide the vitamin C and other nutrients that your body needs. Try adding a pinch of ground ginger or turmeric for an interesting flavor twist and added health benefits.

Instructions

Blending the smoothie ingredients in a food processor.

Place all ingredients inside a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend until smooth.

Using frozen fruit will give your smoothie a thicker, frostier texture without affecting the flavor. If it’s too thick, add a splash of orange juice, pineapple juice, even water for thinner consistency.

Cutting a Mango

Slice the mango lengthwise along the seed on both sides, then score the flesh in a grid pattern and scoop it out with a spoon.

Choosing the right fruit

Choose a pineapple that’s fragrant at the base and slightly yielding to pressure. For mangoes, select ones that yield slightly to pressure and have a sweet smell at the stem.

Variations

Protein Boost: Add a scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder for an energizing post-workout drink.
Greek Yogurt: Add a dollop of Greek yogurt for a creamier texture and a boost of probiotics.
Chia Seeds: Sprinkle in some chia seeds for added fiber, protein, and Omega-3s. They will make a thicker smoothie.
Coconut Water: Swap out the regular water for coconut water to add a tropical twist and extra hydration.
Berries: Add a handful of blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries for added antioxidants and a different flavor profile.
Spinach or Kale: Blend in some spinach or kale for a green smoothie with added nutrients. The fruity flavors will mask the taste of the greens!
Avocado: Blend in half an avocado for a silky texture and a dose of healthy fats.
Almond or Oat Milk: Swap the water with your favorite plant-based milk for a creamier, more satisfying smoothie.
Ice Cream or Frozen Yogurt: Blend in a scoop of vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt for a decadent treat that resembles more of a dessert.
Nuts or Nut Butter: Add a spoonful of almond or peanut butter, or a handful of raw almonds or cashews, for a protein and healthy fat boost.
Flaxseeds: Blend in a tablespoon of flaxseeds for a fiber and Omega-3 boost.
Cacao Nibs: Sprinkle some cacao nibs on top for a slightly bitter contrast and a bit of crunch.
