About This Recipe
Peach Mango Smoothie is a tropical blend of just 6 ingredients – juicy mangoes, peach, banana, yogurt, milk and honey. It is super easy to make, refreshing and comes together in just 5 minutes. This creamy smoothie is perfect for healthy summer breakfast, can be enjoyed as a snack whenever the hunger strikes or as a dessert to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
Mango – Alphonso mangoes are the best to use for smoothies, as they are sweet and juicy. You can use any local variety as well, just make sure they are sweet and juicy enough. Peach – This low calories fruit adds to the taste, making it even more delicious. Banana – Adding banana is optional, but highly recommended as it lends a delicious taste and creamy texture to the smoothie. Yogurt and Milk – This fresh smoothie has low-fat milk and low-fat yogurt that makes this smoothie even creamier. You can use the full fat milk and yogurt to make it extra rich. To make a vegan version, you can substitute milk and yogurt with Almond Milk, Coconut Milk, or even Soy Yogurt. Honey – You can add in some honey, dates, agave nectar, molasses or maple syrup if you feel the sweetness of the smoothie is less. If the fruits are sweet enough, you can avoid adding any sweetener to it.
Variations
You can add different fruits in this smoothie and make a new variation every time. I like to add strawberry and pineapple in mine. You can also add apple, papaya, apricots, raspberry, blueberry, kiwi, banana, etc to yours. Add orange juice, pomegranate juice, or apple juice to this smoothie to make it healthier and delicious. You can skip milk and yogurt if you are adding fruit juice to make it vegan. You can also add in a spoon of vanilla protein powder to make it your pre or post workout snack.
Benefits of Peach and Mango
Peaches are great for weight loss, beautiful skin and it’s also a stress – reliever.Mangoes are a great source of Vitamin C and A, it’s also great for digestion, skin health and hair.
Do I need to give you any more reasons to combine these sun-kissed delicious fruits? What I love about smoothies is that it keeps you full for a longer time. So instead of spending hours deciding on what to make for breakfast, especially on a lazy Sunday morning, treat yourself to this super simple smoothie. A really healthy habit would be to incorporate a host of different smoothies in your diet so that you get the benefits of many different fruits and veggies.
Serving Suggestions
You can enjoy Mango Peach Smoothie as breakfast or snack. You can also make a smoothie bowl from this smoothie, which will make your breakfast more filling and wholesome. Just make it a little thicker than the usual smoothie (skip adding milk) and top it with interesting toppings such as Kiwi, Banana, Muesli, Coconut Flakes, Dry Fruits, Seeds or Nuts.
Storing Suggestions
Storing is not recommended! As it just takes 5 minutes, make it fresh. You can instead cut mangoes, banana and peach a night before and freeze so that it comes in handy while making the smoothie.
Pro Tips By Neha
Make sure to freeze the fruits a few hours before making the smoothie. Using frozen fruits makes the smoothie creamier and you don’t need ice to chill it. Use a good blender to make the smoothie. We don’t want chunks of fruits coming in your mouth. You can freeze peaches and mango when they are in season like I do and then keep using it throughout the year. You can do the same with blueberries and other fruits too. You can add more ingredients and make a new variation every time. This recipe is a great mason jar recipe. You can sip it on the go.
Step By Step Recipe
Add peach, mango, banana, low-fat milk, low-fat yogurt, and honey in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the smoothie in serving glasses. Garnish with peach slices and fresh mint. Serve chilled.
