How to make a mango smoothie! Want to feel like you've been transported to your favorite tropical destination? A Mango Pineapple Smoothie that tastes like a tropical orange shake will do that.
On a recent adventure to the mall with a friend, we ventured into a very popular "smoothie" shop. My friend "P" ordered a tropical smoothie that appeared much like this mango pineapple smoothie.
Carefully watching the smoothie being made (for research purposes, of course!), I was a little horrified at what occurred!
Tossed into a blender: a little fruit, A LOT of ice, and some other mystery item.
I found out the mystery item was an additional sweetener.
Yikes!

Not all smoothie shops are the same, of course. It's super fun sitting at a counter at a favorite shop watching smoothies being made with wonderful, whole foods and quality ingredients. That being said, it's still more economical to make at home. 🙂
One secret to being successful with at-home smoothies is variety. Keep a variety of frozen fruits and veggies so you can make green smoothies: anti-inflammatory green smoothie, spinach apple smoothie, super green detox smoothie, or a kale-apple smoothie.
Smoothie bowls are fun too: strawberry coconut milk smoothie, tropical mango smoothie bowl.

Smoothies are a great and easy way to get servings of fruit and veggies into our diet. Plus, they are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Mangoes are not just delicious, but a nutritious ingredient. Luckily, they are available frozen in the grocery store so it's not necessary to wait for fresh fruit in season.
Seriously, every time I have this smoothie, I want to put on my sunglasses, like I am on vacation!
