Tips + Tricks for a Mango Smoothie
Use Frozen Fruit, NOT Ice
We highly recommend using frozen fruit over fresh fruit or ice! Fresh fruit tends to omit more liquid than frozen fruit, making your smoothie more water-y.
We also HIGHLY recommend avoiding ice, if possible! Ice also tends to produce a more water-y smoothie, plus, if you can achieve that thick and chilled texture by using nutrient-dense ingredients instead of ice, why wouldn’t you!?
Keep a stash of frozen fruit in you freezer at all times or freeze extra berries or fruit that you have at home for DIY frozen fruit.
You only need to freeze your fruit for 30-60 minutes for it to be smoothie ready, so no need to worry if you’re just popping your fruit into the freezer now! You’ll be off and running with a delicious smoothie in no time 😀
Need some extra protein?
If you are enjoying this mango smoothie after a workout or just want to beef it up a bit, feel free to add a scoop or two of your favorite protein powder. Check out our favorite protein powders here!
Specifically, Frozen Bananas Can’t be Beat
We are big fans of using frozen bananas as a base for many of our smoothie recipes. Not only are bananas cheap, and nutrient-dense, but when they are frozen and then blended, they are SO delicious and creamy!
Check out our post on how to freeze bananas for all of the best tips and tricks!
A Little Liquid at a Time, People
One of the main tips we give people when making a smoothie is add the recommended amount of liquid a little bit at a time until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency.
Adding all of the liquid at once could leave you with a water-y smoothie! You can ALWAYS add more liquid, but can’t take it out!
pro tip
If your smoothie accidentally got too water-y, add a tablespoon of protein powder at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
Not All Blenders are Created Equal
While not everyone has the same blender, we do recommend finding a high quality, high-speed blender if you plan on making smoothies frequently!
The higher quality blender, the creamier your smoothie (and none of those unwanted chunks!) will be and the longer your blender will last.
