Ingredients
Method
- Prepare Your Blender: Start by pouring the liquids into the blender jug. Add the 120ml of milk and 1 tbsp of fresh lime juice first. I find that this helps the blades move more freely once the frozen ingredients are added.
- Add the Softer Ingredients: Next, add the 150g of Greek yoghurt, 1 tbsp of honey or maple syrup, 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, and the pinch of sea salt (if using).
- Add the Frozen Fruit: Now, add the 300g of frozen mango chunks on top of the other ingredients. If you're including any optional boosts like spinach or chia seeds, add them now.
- Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on your blender. Begin blending on a low speed for about 20-30 seconds to break up the large mango pieces. Then, increase the speed to high and blend for a further 60-90 seconds.
- Check for Consistency: Continue blending until the smoothie is completely smooth and creamy, with no lumps remaining. You should see a vortex form in the middle of the blender, which means everything is circulating properly. If the smoothie is too thick for your blender to handle, add another splash of milk and blend again.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into one or two glasses. It's best enjoyed straight away while it's still frosty and thick.
Notes
For a thinner consistency, add a splash more milk. Best served immediately while cold and frosty.
