We love making fruit smoothies.  Our mango smoothie recipe is one of our classics and is a regular go-to.

For all fruit smoothies we use a basic template which we vary for each smoothie.  You can find our core fruit smoothie guide here.

Cole Cooks: A Guide to Fruit Smoothies

Smoothies are a regular part of our diet.  They are easy to make and can be nutritious with the proper ingredients.  This is our basic guide to fruit smoothies. Using this guide as a base, one can experiment with all kinds of fruit smoothies.  We have a full guide to recipes we have developed using […]

We like to use frozen fruit.  We get frozen mango chunks from Trader Joe’s

For a mango smoothie we like to use orange juice.  However, any juice you like can be used.  For a healthy smoothie some people (not us) like to use coconut water.

With orange juice, we tend to add a sweetener.  For us it is almost always honey.  However, the sweetener is optional and other sweeteners could be substituted.  A good practice is to mix the smoothie, taste and add sweetener as needed.

No matter what type of smoothie you are making, a good blender is essential.  When we invested in a Nutri Ninja our smoothie making really took off.  Our Nutri Ninja has all kinds of buttons and settings. This includes a dedicated smoothie button I have never used.  Instead we simply turn it on to medium and let it go for about a minute.  We have a high-end Nutri Ninja system but they have a complete line for all budgets.
