Ingredients You’ll Need

Frozen Mango: we like to use frozen mango chunks both for convenience, but it also makes a thicker smoothie texture. You can use fresh mango in this smoothie if you prefer.
Frozen Raspberries: we love frozen fruit in this smoothie, but you can use fresh berries instead if that is what you have on hand.
Banana: fresh or frozen ripe bananas work well for this recipe.
Orange Juice: a little bit of fresh squeezed orange juice brightens up all the flavors in this smoothie. You can also use store-bought orange juice OR substitute with a couple tablespoons of lemon or lime juice.
Milk: I prefer to use unsweetened soy milk in smoothies since it has 8 grams of protein per cup, but you can use any non-dairy milk that you like such as: almond milk, oat milk, or even coconut milk.
Yogurt: To make this vegan, use a non-dairy yogurt made with soy, coconut, or almonds. I really like the plant-based yogurt from Siggi’s since it has added protein.
Chia Seeds: I have a whole post about some of the health benefits of chia seeds but suffice it to say – they are a great way to add extra nutrients to a smoothie! For this recipe, you’ll add about a tablespoon of chia seeds for extra fiber and omega 3 fat. If you don’t have chia seeds, you can leave them out or substitute with flax seeds or hemp seeds.

How to Make a Mango Raspberry Smoothie

To make this delicious smoothie, add all of your ingredients to a high speed blender and puree until smooth. If using frozen fruit, you may need to add a splash of milk if it is too thick to blend.

Recipe Notes:

Make it extra thick: I use only frozen fruit for this smoothie because I love when they are thick and frosty without having to add ice. If you use fresh fruit, it will be thinner but just as delicious!
Make a green smoothie: Feel free to add a handful of fresh or frozen greens to this simple recipe before blending for an extra serving of veggies. It won’t be a pretty pink, but it will still be good for you.
Add more protein: if you want to add more protein to this smoothie, feel free to throw in a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder or a spoonful of nut butter like cashew butter or almond butter.
