Ingredients
Scale
Liquid Base
- 2 cups almond milk, unsweetened (or other milk of choice)
Fruits
- 2 cups mango (frozen, if possible)
- 2 medium mandarin oranges (frozen, if possible)
- 1/4 medium avocado (ripe)
Dairy
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
Flavorings and Seasonings
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Blender: Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender, beginning with the almond milk to help blend more easily. If using fresh instead of frozen fruit, reduce the amount of milk to about 1 to 1.5 cups to maintain a nice thick texture before adjusting as needed.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the smoothie is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the flavor or liquid amount to achieve your preferred consistency and flavor, then serve immediately and enjoy this nourishing smoothie.
Notes
- Using frozen fruit helps create a thicker and colder smoothie without adding ice, preserving flavor and texture.
- If fresh fruit is used, reduce the milk quantity for a thicker texture.
- The avocado adds creaminess and healthy fats but can be omitted if desired.
- Adjust the ginger and vanilla extract to taste for more spice or sweetness.
- A pinch of sea salt enhances the flavors subtly.
