Pure Mango Apple Smoothie
Sweet and fresh, with a creamy tropical mango body and a crisp apple acidity.
Mango and apple are a practical pairing: apples are available everywhere all year, and a single ripe mango makes the drink creamy enough without any dairy. The mango brings a tropical aroma and velvety flesh, the apple juice and a pleasant acidity, especially if you choose a tart variety such as Granny Smith or Elstar.
Mango is a good source of vitamin C and provitamin A. The smoothie is naturally sweet, dairy-free and quick, which makes it a good everyday breakfast or snack. For a colder, thicker version, use frozen mango cubes.
