Soft and sweet, with creamy mango, fragrant pear and a cool mint finish.
This smoothie pairs a tropical fruit with an orchard fruit. Mango brings creaminess and a deep, sweet aroma, while pear adds juice, a floral fragrance and a slightly grainy texture that blends into silkiness. Fresh mint adds a cool contrast.
Mango provides vitamin C and carotenoids, pear fibre. With water as the base and no added sugar, it is a light but satisfying smoothie for breakfast or a warm afternoon.
