This Peach Mango Smoothie is a tasty, fruity drink made with fresh peaches and ripe mangoes blended with a bit of juice or yogurt. It’s sweet, cool, and perfect for a quick refresh.
I like to think of it as a swimmer in a pool of sunshine—bright and cheerful! Sometimes I add a little honey if I want it extra sweet.
For a thicker smoothie, I toss in some ice or frozen fruit; for a lighter drink, just use more juice. It’s simple and easy to make any morning!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Peach: Use ripe peaches for natural sweetness and vibrant flavor. I like frozen peaches to keep the smoothie chilled and thick. If fresh peaches aren’t available, canned peaches in juice work well—just drain them before blending.
Mango: Fresh or frozen mango adds a tropical sweetness. I prefer frozen for a creamier texture without extra ice. If fresh mango isn’t in season, canned mango chunks are fine; just make sure they’re in juice, not syrup.
Banana: Ripe bananas give the smoothie a creamy base. I freeze bananas in chunks for convenience. If you forget to freeze, add ice, but it may make the smoothie thinner. Overripe bananas add extra sweetness—bonus!
Liquid: Use orange juice or coconut water for a fruity, hydrating base. I find coconut water adds a subtle tropical note. If you prefer a creamier drink, swap in dairy or plant-based milk like almond or soy.
Sweetener (optional): Honey, agave, or maple syrup can enhance sweetness if needed. I keep it simple with just the fruit, but a drizzle of honey works nicely if your fruit isn’t super ripe.
How do I blend a smoothie without making it too chunky or too thin?
Start by adding liquid to your blender, then add all fruits. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides if needed. If it’s too thick, add more liquid and blend again. If it’s too thin, add more frozen fruit or ice and blend until creamy.
- Step 1: Pour liquid into the blender first for easier blending.
- Step 2: Add fruits and blend on low speed first to combine.
- Step 3: Gradually increase to high until smooth and creamy.
- Step 4: Check consistency; add more liquid or fruit as needed.
