Ideas And Tips:

• You can also use frozen mangoes for this smoothie. Make sure you take them out of the freezer ahead of time so that your blender won’t have a hard time.

• There is non-fat coconut milk available in stores. If your local market does not have any coconut milk, you can use other types of milk like soy or almond. You can add some shredded coconut, or even coconut water, to add that coconut flavor to the smoothie.

• You can keep this smoothie in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. You can also add some crushed ice to make it cold if there is no time available to put it in the fridge.

• Mangoes are already sweet, but you can make it sweeter by adding honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar.
