Smoothies are truly the best. They are cooling, easy to make, and provide you with tons of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, protein, and more in one fell swoop. You have to change up your smoothie ingredients in order to diversify your nutrient intake. Incorporate colorful fruits and vegetables, as all of those vibrant colors offer unique antioxidants. This antioxidant-rich beet mango smoothie, for example, has many colors in the rainbow. If you’ve learned anything from us over the years, it’s that we support eating the rainbow, just not Skittles.

To make this smoothie, you begin with mango, which offers a sweet, creamy, tropical base. Add in frozen raspberries for a subtly tart flavor, more antioxidants, and fiber. Next, add chopped beet, but make sure to peel it because that will help reduce the earthy flavor. Beets provide unique antioxidants, which give them their signature dark red color. They also contain folate and nitrites, which the body converts to nitric oxide. In the body, nitric oxide helps to relax blood vessels, increase oxygen and nutrient delivery, and improve muscle efficiency.

The remaining ingredients are carrots and spinach, which we classify as the hidden vegetables in this smoothie. Carrots actually provide a pleasant sweetness and the spinach goes unnoticed, as it does not have a strong flavor. You’ll add fresh lime juice, ginger, and mint to really brighten up the flavor of the whole smoothie. Just blend it up until it reaches your desired consistency and then enjoy!

There are green smoothies, and then there are green smoothies. Some of them taste like lawn clippings, while others have the perfect balance of fruits and green vegetables. The right green smoothie can convince you to start drinking more of them, which is a great thing. The main thing is to not overload your green smoothies with fruit because, although the sugars in fruit are naturally occurring, you can consume too much.

This smoothie contains mango, peach, kale, ginger, and freshly squeezed lemon juice, so it hits a lot of flavor notes. You have sweet, bitter, and slightly tart. Just like the kale, the lemon juice helps to promote alkalinity within the body, despite the fact that it contains citric acid. You can learn more about how lemons and other seemingly acidic fruits promote alkalinity by clicking here. Ginger can help soothe an upset stomach and provides anti-inflammatory properties, just like other ingredients in this smoothie.

What you need to know about this smoothie is that it is perfectly sweet, but not too sweet. It is smooth without being overly creamy. It’s gingery, fruity, loaded with greens, and incredibly delicious. A few slurps will have you in a daze of smoothie bliss! That’s not a guarantee, but it’s how we felt!

One of the best ways to start your day, besides drinking a glass of water, is to flood the body with nutrients. An easy way to do this is to drink a smoothie for breakfast. A fruit smoothie is tasty, but can contain too much sugar, which is why it’s ideal to evenly balance fruits and vegetables in your smoothie. Spinach is and excellent green to add to smoothies, but you should change up your leafy greens.

We’ve made some tropical smoothies before, but this recipe takes the cake! After you take one sip, you’ll feel as though you are on an island, lounging by the beach. Who brought you such a delectable refreshment that was crafted from the island’s most flavorful produce items? That’s how delicious and refreshing this smoothie is. Is it the dragon fruit or the lime that sets off the flavor? You’ll have to make it to find out!

We have a confession to make, and it’s that adding dragon fruit to a smoothie is mainly for our social media videos. In fact, you’ll soon find the video for this recipe on our YouTube channel and Instagram. It’s an exotic fruit that looks like a poppyseed cake on the inside. Dragon fruit exhibits somewhat of a sweeter flavor profile, but it doesn’t have a strong flavor. Many people find it difficult to articulate exactly how it tastes, but it is an enjoyable fruit to eat. Make sure to discard the skin, as you do not want to add that to your smoothie. Additionally, dragon fruit is very low in calories, rich in fiber, and high in vitamin C and iron.

The banana provides both sweetness and creaminess, while the mango comes to the forefront with the signature sweet and mildly tart flavor. And then you have the lime juice, which may seem like an odd choice, but it takes this smoothie to another level. If it didn’t have the lime juice, it may not have made it on the website! We only have room for delicious recipes, people. The last thing to keep in mind is that it’s best to freeze the dragon fruit, banana, and mango prior to making the smoothie, but you don’t have to do that. Simply add ice if you choose not to freeze your fruit.

Is it weird to put carrots in a smoothie? No, absolutely not. Classically, people like to incorporate carrots into various juice blends, as they produce a lot of juice. The classic combination is carrots, apples, and beets, which is one of the best detox juice concoctions. Carrots offer a unique sweetness, so they pair well with other ingredients. For this recipe, we take a trip to the tropics by incorporating mango and banana, so you don’t have to worry about a prominent carrot flavor.

Interestingly enough, mangos that are slightly unripe have a similar flavor to carrots. Is that why mangos are in this recipe? No, mangos are simply delicious and we want to enjoy them every chance we can. The banana complements the inherent sweetness of both the mango and carrots, and the freshly squeezed orange juice brightens up the party with a citrusy flare. Orange juice is the liquid ingredient for this recipe. No need for homemade almond milk or filtered water! For maximum sweetness, choose Cara Cara oranges for juicing. You can thank us later because the juice will change your life.

Another interesting and flavorful option is to juice blood oranges, but that will provide a slightly more citrus-forward flavor in your smoothie. Last but not least, peel and chop the carrots and then freeze them overnight. If you don’t want to freeze the carrots, you can peel, slice, and freeze the banana overnight. Whichever method you choose, you will have a tasty, nutrient-dense smoothie.

Spinach is and excellent green to add to smoothies, but you should change up your leafy greens. Diversity in diet is a beautiful thing and switching up leafy greens is an easy way to incorporate new nutrients.

Kale does exhibit a stronger, slightly more bitter flavor profile than spinach, but the banana, mango, and lime juice work to balance that flavor. We can promise you that there are so many other flavors in this smoothie that you won’t be bombarded by bitter kale. In fact, you may not taste it at all! In addition to a balanced flavor profile, this smoothie also contains lots of protein and healthy fats. The fats come from four ingredients: avocados, chia seeds, hemp seeds, and homemade almond milk. While hemp seeds and chia seeds are great options, you can use other substitutes if they aren’t available to you. Great substitutes for these two ingredients include flax seeds or pumpkin seeds.

In regards to using fresh or frozen ingredients, that is entirely up to you. We encourage you to freeze the banana and mango chunks overnight to give the smoothie texture. If you don’t want to freeze your ingredients, you can always add your desired amount of ice to the smoothie. The frozen fruits or ice work to give the smoothie that signature chill and slushy consistency. Let us know what you end up doing and if you like the smoothie in the comments below.
