A sunshine-in-a-glass smoothie that blends ripe mango with fresh ginger, creamy coconut milk and a kiss of lime. The ginger adds a warming kick that keeps it from being overly sweet, while the mango delivers pure tropical indulgence. A spoonful of ground flax or chia adds a healthy boost without changing the flavour. It's the kind of smoothie that feels like a mini vacation first thing in the morning, and it comes together in under 5 minutes with just a blender.

Directions

Directions

  1. 1
    Place all ingredients in the blender in the order listed: liquids and softer ingredients first, frozen fruit and ice on top. This helps the blades process smoothly.
  2. 2
    Blend on high for 45-60 seconds, stopping once to scrape down the sides if needed, until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. 3
    Taste and adjust: add maple syrup if your mango isn't very sweet, or more ginger for extra kick.
  4. 4
    If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more coconut milk. If too thin, add a few more ice cubes or frozen mango.
  5. 5
    Pour into two tall glasses. Garnish with a thin slice of lime on the rim and a pinch of extra ground flaxseed on top if desired.
  6. 6
    Serve and drink immediately for the best texture and temperature.
