This Frozen Strawberry Mango Lemonade Smoothie is bright, frosty, and made for sunny days. Sweet mango and strawberries blend with creamy Greek yogurt, banana, and a splash of lemonade-style citrus for a smoothie that tastes like a fruity frozen drink with extra tang. It is perfect when you want a mango smoothie that feels a little more refreshing and zingy than the usual blend.
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 medium banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup cold lemonade
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup cold water, as needed
- 1/2 cup ice cubes, optional for a thicker, frostier texture
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup, optional, to taste
How To Make It
Add the lemonade, Greek yogurt, lime juice, banana, frozen mango, and frozen strawberries to a blender. Starting with the liquid on the bottom helps the blades move more easily, especially when using frozen fruit.
Blend on medium speed until the fruit starts to break down, then increase to high and blend until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches your favorite sipping texture.
Taste and adjust before serving. If you want it more tart, add another small squeeze of lime. If your fruit is not very sweet, blend in honey or maple syrup. For an extra icy smoothie, add the ice cubes and blend again until slushy and chilled.
Pour into one large glass or two small glasses. Serve immediately while the smoothie is thick, cold, and bright.
Tips
Use frozen fruit for the best texture. Frozen strawberries and mango make this smoothie naturally thick and frosty without needing a lot of ice.
Choose a lemonade you enjoy drinking. A lightly sweet lemonade keeps the smoothie bright, while a stronger lemonade gives it more tangy summer flavor.
For a creamier smoothie, use whole milk Greek yogurt. For a lighter texture, use low-fat Greek yogurt or add a little extra cold water.
If your blender needs help, pause and scrape down the sides, then continue blending. Adding the liquid ingredients first also makes a big difference.
To prep ahead, portion the strawberries, mango, and banana into a freezer bag. When ready to blend, add the frozen fruit to the blender with yogurt, lemonade, and lime juice.
Sip it cold and enjoy the sunny strawberry-mango zing!
