Preparing The Ingredients

Start with fresh mangoes. Peel and cut them into chunks. Want to skip the mess? Opt for pre-packaged mango pieces from the store.

Next, grab an avocado. Slice it open, remove the pit, and scoop out the creamy goodness. Make sure it’s ripe. A soft avocado will blend much better.

Pour in your choice of plant-based milk. Almond or coconut milk works great. They add a nice flavor and help everything blend smoothly.

You might like a hint of sweetness. Toss in a little agave syrup or a few dates. It will complement the fruit flavors.

Lastly, get some lime juice. Squeeze in a fresh lime. This adds a zesty touch, balancing the creaminess of the avocado.

Gather your ingredients all in one place to make blending a breeze. It’s all about simplicity and flavor.

  • You can switch things up by adding a handful of spinach to your smoothie. Spinach blends easily and adds extra nutrients without changing the taste too much.
  • Feel like your smoothie needs a bit more sweetness? Try tossing in a banana. Banana pairs well with mango and adds a creamy texture.
  • If you’re a fan of berries, replace the avocado with a mix of frozen strawberries or blueberries. These fruits give a nice tang and bring a beautiful color.
  • For a nutty flavor, add a spoonful of almond butter. It makes the smoothie richer and keeps you full longer.
  • Want it to taste more like a dessert? Sprinkle in a little cocoa powder. Chocolate and mango go surprisingly well together.
  • For those who want a tropical twist, switch the water or milk with coconut water. This gives the smoothie a fresh, tropical vibe that’s super refreshing.
  • Sometimes, a pinch of ginger or turmeric can give your smoothie an interesting kick. Just a small amount can have a big impact on flavor.
  • Mixing in some oats can make the smoothie more filling. This is great if you’re having it for breakfast. Oats blend well without making the drink mushy.
  • Try using frozen mango chunks instead of fresh ones. It makes the smoothie colder and thicker, similar to a slushy.

Storage Tips

  • When you make a vegan mango avocado smoothie, you might not finish it all at once. To keep it fresh, pour the smoothie into an airtight container. Jars with secure lids work well for this. Make sure to leave some space at the top of the jar, because the smoothie can expand.
  • Put the smoothie in the fridge if you plan to drink it within the next day or two. This way, it stays cold and tasty. Before serving, give it a good shake to mix it up again.
  • If you want to store it for a longer time, freezing is a smart idea. Pour it into ice cube trays and freeze. When you’re ready to enjoy the smoothie later, just blend the frozen smoothie cubes. This is a quick way to enjoy a smoothie without making it from scratch again.
  • Remember, fresh is best. Try not to store the smoothie for too long. The flavors are most vibrant when enjoyed soon after making. If the smoothie changes color or smells off, it’s better to make a fresh batch.
