Honey Mango and Almond Smoothie

A creamy, tropical Honey Mango and Almond Smoothie with sweet mangoes, nutty almonds, and honey for a refreshing, healthy treat.

Prep Time 5 minutes

Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 cup ripe mango chunks (fresh or frozen)
• 1 tablespoon raw honey
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons raw almonds (soaked, if preferred)
• 3/4 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 4-5 ice cubes (optional, if using fresh mango)

Instructions

1. Gather Your Ingredients: Collect all ingredients to streamline the process. Fresh, ripe mangoes or frozen chunks work wonderfully.
2. Prep the Mango: If using fresh mango, peel and dice into chunks. Frozen mango saves time and adds chill.
3. Soak Almonds (Optional): For a smoother texture, soak almonds in water for 4-6 hours or overnight, then drain.
4. Add Liquids First: Pour almond milk and vanilla extract into the blender to help it process smoothly.
5. Add Soft Ingredients: Toss in the Greek yogurt, mango chunks, and honey for even blending.
6. Incorporate Almonds: Add the almonds last to ensure they blend into a creamy consistency.
7. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high for 60-90 seconds until silky, stopping to scrape sides if needed.
8. Check Consistency: If too thick, add a splash of milk; if too thin, add more mango or yogurt.
9. Add Ice (Optional): For extra chill, blend in ice cubes until smooth, about 20 seconds.
10. Serve and Enjoy: Pour into glasses, garnish with a mango slice or almond slivers, and sip the tropical goodness!

Notes

• Use ripe, sweet mangoes for the best flavor; unripe ones may taste tart.
• Adjust honey based on mango sweetness to avoid overpowering the smoothie.
• For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder.
• Ensure your blender is powerful enough to handle almonds for a smooth result.

Ingredients Notes

• Mango: Fresh or frozen mango chunks work best for vibrant flavor and natural sweetness. Choose ripe mangoes for optimal taste.
• Almonds: Whole or slivered almonds add a nutty depth; raw, unsalted ones ensure pure flavor.
• Honey: Use raw, local honey for a floral sweetness and potential health benefits.
• Milk: Dairy or plant-based milk (like almond or oat) provides creaminess; adjust type based on dietary needs.
• Yogurt: Greek yogurt adds tanginess and protein; plain, unsweetened varieties keep the smoothie healthy.

Variations and Substitutions

For a vegan twist, swap honey for agave nectar and use plant-based milk and yogurt. Add a handful of spinach or kale for a nutrient boost without altering the flavor. Substitute almonds with cashews or walnuts for a different nutty profile. For a tropical flair, include pineapple or coconut milk. If mangoes are unavailable, try peaches or apricots for a similar sweetness. To make it thicker, add a frozen banana or reduce the liquid slightly.

Storage Options

Store the smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake or stir before drinking, as separation may occur. For longer storage, freeze in portioned containers or ice cube trays for up to a month. Thaw in the fridge or blend frozen cubes with a splash of milk for a quick refresh.
