Ingredients You’ll Need

• Mangoes: Provides natural sweetness and a tropical flavor that forms the backbone of this smoothie. Fresh mangoes give the best flavor, but jarred mangoes work wonderfully when mangoes aren’t in season.
• Peaches: Adds a subtle sweetness and lovely aromatic quality. Their natural juiciness helps create that perfect smoothie consistency.
• Greek Yogurt: Creates incredible creaminess while adding protein to keep you full. The tanginess balances the sweet fruit perfectly.
• Skim Milk: Thins out the smoothie to the right consistency without adding too many calories. Adjust the amount depending on how thick you like your smoothies.
• Vanilla Protein Powder: Optional, but adds staying power to make this a meal replacement. Great for post-workout recovery or busy mornings.
• Ice Cubes: Chills everything down and adds that perfect frosty texture we all love in smoothies.
• Strawberry: Optional garnish that adds a pop of color and an extra hint of berry flavor.

Variations

Give your peach mango smoothie a personal twist with these delicious variations:

• Tropical Twist: Add half a banana and a splash of coconut milk for a vacation-worthy flavor.
• Green Machine: Toss in a handful of spinach—you won’t taste it, but you’ll get all the benefits!
• Berry Blast: Add a handful of strawberries or blueberries for additional antioxidants and a beautiful color.
• Spiced Version: A pinch of cinnamon or cardamom takes this smoothie to gourmet territory.
• Dairy-Free Option: Substitute the yogurt and milk with coconut yogurt and almond milk for an equally delicious vegan version.

How to Make Peach Mango Smoothie

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

Measure out your mango, peach, Greek yogurt, skim milk, protein powder (if using), and grab a few ice cubes. Having everything ready makes the process even quicker.

Step 2: Blend Everything

Add all ingredients to your blender. Start with the softer ingredients (fruit and yogurt) on the bottom near the blade for easier blending.

Step 3: Process Until Smooth

Blend for 45-60 seconds until everything is completely smooth. You’ll know it’s ready when you don’t hear any more chunks being processed.

Step 4: Serve Immediately

Pour into glasses and garnish with a fresh strawberry if desired. Enjoy right away for the best taste and texture!

Note: If using frozen fruit, you might need to add a splash more milk to help with blending.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

• Ingredient Temperature Matters: Room temperature fruit blends easier than cold fruit straight from the refrigerator.
• Blender Loading Order: Always add your liquid ingredients first, followed by soft items, then frozen items. This creates a vortex that pulls everything down toward the blades.
• Frozen Fruit Hack: For an extra-thick, frosty smoothie, freeze your peaches and mangoes ahead of time and reduce or eliminate the ice.
• Perfectly Ripe Fruit: The riper your fruit, the sweeter your smoothie will be naturally. If your fruit isn’t quite ripe, a tiny drizzle of honey can help.

Make Ahead and Storage

Make Ahead

Prepare smoothie packs by measuring out peaches, mangoes, and protein powder into freezer bags. In the morning, just dump into the blender with yogurt and milk!

Storing Leftovers

While best consumed immediately, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container or mason jar in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Freezing

Pour leftover smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze. Pop these cubes into your next batch for an extra-cold, extra-fruity boost.

Reusing

If your smoothie separates after storing, give it a quick shake or brief re-blend with a splash of milk to revive the texture.

FAQs

Can I use frozen fruit instead of fresh?
Absolutely! Frozen fruit works brilliantly and often creates a thicker, colder smoothie. If using frozen fruit, you might be able to skip the ice cubes entirely. Just add a splash more milk if it’s too thick to blend easily.

How can I make this smoothie more filling for breakfast?
Adding protein is key for staying power. Don’t skip the protein powder, and consider adding a tablespoon of nut butter or a tablespoon of chia seeds. Both add healthy fats and fiber that will keep you satisfied longer.

Is this smoothie suitable for kids?
This is a wonderfully kid-friendly recipe! The natural sweetness from the fruits is usually enough to delight even picky eaters. For smaller children, you might want to omit the protein powder and use whole milk instead of skim for appropriate fat content for developing brains.

Can I make this smoothie dairy-free?
Definitely! Simply substitute the Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt, silken tofu, or even avocado for creaminess. Replace the skim milk with any plant-based milk like almond, oat, or coconut milk. The flavor will be slightly different but equally delicious.
