- Ice cubes (as needed)

Notes
Tip: For a thicker smoothie, freeze the banana beforehand or add more ice. You can also substitute coconut yogurt for a dairy-free version.
For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh mangoes. If they’re out of season, frozen mango chunks work wonderfully too. You can also customize this smoothie by adding a handful of spinach for extra nutrients without changing the flavor much.
To make it even more tropical, consider adding a splash of coconut milk or a few pieces of pineapple. This smoothie can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but it’s best enjoyed fresh!
