Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe mango peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
  • ½ cup coconut milk full-fat or light, depending on preference
  • ¼ cup orange juice freshly squeezed preferred
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds optional, for added fiber and omega-3s
  • A few ice cubes optional, for a colder smoothie

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Mango:
  2. Start by peeling the ripe mango. Cut the flesh away from the pit and cube it into manageable pieces for blending. Ensure the mango is ripe for the best sweetness and flavor.
  3. Step 2: Measure the Pineapple Chunks:
  4. Measure out 1 cup of frozen pineapple chunks. Using frozen pineapple helps to create a thicker and colder smoothie without the need for too much ice.
  5. Step 3: Gather the Liquids:
  6. Measure ½ cup of coconut milk and ¼ cup of orange juice. Freshly squeezed orange juice is recommended for a more vibrant and natural flavor. Also, squeeze 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice.
  7. Step 4: Prepare Optional Add-ins:
  8. If using chia seeds, measure out 1 teaspoon. Have a few ice cubes ready if you prefer a colder smoothie.
  9. Step 5: Arrange for Garnishes:
  10. Prepare your desired garnishes such as a pineapple wedge, shredded coconut, or a lime slice to add a visual appeal to your smoothie.
