Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup Frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 medium Banana
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 2 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Gather all ingredients and ensure the mango and pineapple are frozen for a thick and frosty smoothie texture.
Peel the banana and break it into large chunks for easier blending.
In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen mango chunks, frozen pineapple chunks, banana, orange juice, coconut milk, and Greek yogurt (if using).
If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add honey or agave syrup at this stage.
Add the ice cubes to the blender to achieve a colder and thicker consistency.
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or add more liquid (orange juice or coconut milk) if necessary for your desired consistency.
Pour the smoothie into two serving glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your California-inspired tropical drink!
