Similar to a mango lassi, this simple protein-packed mango smoothie requires only three ingredients ā mango, Greek yogurt and almond milk. Creamy, cool and deliciously refreshing on a hot summer day.Ā
I love apples, pumpkin and butternut squash just as much as next girl but Iām so not ready to give up on summer just yet. Itās still hot here in Richmond, our farmers market is still loaded with summer produce and itās definitely still smoothie season in my mind. Whoās with me on this?
If youāre shaking your head yes, I have JUSTĀ the mango smoothie recipe for you!
Itās similar to a mango lassi, only a tad healthier because I stuck with three simple ingredients (protein-packed Greek yogurt, unsweetened vanilla almondmilk and frozen mango) and skipped with added sugar and cream. I didnāt add any Indian spices, but next time I make it I am going to add some because I bet it would be delish and cardamom has some amazing health benefits.
I used plain Greek yogurt and unsweetened almond milk so the smoothie is a bit tart and notĀ over-the-top sweet. That said, if you like sweeter smoothies feel free to use a flavored Greek yogurt or sweetened almond milk.
Itās refreshing, extra creamy and excellentĀ for sipping poolside. <ā I know this because I tested it last weekend.Ā Ready to dive in? Hereās the recipe.

I’m with you, girl! I’m not ready to leave summer behind, even though fall is amazing. Love me some mango!
Monica says
Great recipe, but skip the almond breeze almond milk!!! It contain carrageenan—look it up-it’s not healthy and causes inflammation.
Brittany Mullins says
Hi Monica. Just as an update, Almond Breeze is currently phasing out carrageenan from their products. First to market are Unsweetened Original and Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze shelf stable varieties, which are appearing on store shelves now. All Almond Breeze products will be carrageenan-free by early 2016!!

Can you substitute almond milk with normal milk, for example Hiland 2% fat milk?
Brittany Mullins says
Sure!
Melissa Novotny says
This is our favorite smoothie. I add a fresh mango (one or two if you like it stronger), milk or soy or almond milk, live culture yogurt, flax seed oil, a dash of nutmeg or cardamom. Mango is a subtle flavor and people often buy the puree or slices in cans. Frozen mango should be just as good although with mango in season I have not tried it. Not everyone likes the taste of mango and it can always be mixed with other fruits to your own taste. We use coconut sugar or sugar substitute because some mangos are just not that sweet.

It’s really good I made it this morning…. but is it really 823 calories?
Brittany Mullins says
Hey T! Something went wonky with the nutrition facts. I just updated them so they’re correct now. It’s 190 cals for the smoothie, not 823!!!! š
