This Tropical Strawberry Mango Coconut Smoothie is a bright, creamy blend made for mango smoothie lovers who want something fruity, colorful, and easy. Sweet mango and strawberries bring the sunny flavor, coconut milk adds a soft tropical finish, and Greek yogurt gives it a smooth, satisfying texture. It is quick enough for breakfast, cheerful enough for an afternoon snack, and pretty enough to save to your smoothie board.
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled
- 3/4 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 medium banana
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup, optional
- 1/2 cup ice, optional for a thicker smoothie
How To Make It
Add the coconut milk to the blender first. This helps the blades move easily and keeps the fruit from sticking at the bottom.
Add the Greek yogurt, banana, frozen mango, and strawberries. If your strawberries are fresh and very juicy, you may not need ice. If you want a frostier, spoonable smoothie, add the ice before blending.
Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds, or until the mixture looks creamy and evenly pink-orange. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed. If the smoothie is too thick, add another splash of coconut milk and blend again. If it is too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks or ice cubes.
Taste before pouring. The banana and mango usually make this smoothie naturally sweet, but you can blend in a small drizzle of honey or maple syrup if your fruit is tart.
Pour into one large glass or two small glasses. For a pretty finish, top with a sliced strawberry, a few mango pieces, or a light sprinkle of shredded coconut.
Tips
Use frozen mango for the best thick, creamy texture. It blends smoothly and keeps the drink cold without watering it down.
For a stronger coconut flavor, use canned light coconut milk. For a lighter sip, use refrigerated coconut milk beverage.
Make it extra creamy by using a full banana instead of half, or add an extra spoonful of Greek yogurt.
If you want a layered look, blend the mango and coconut milk first, pour half into the glass, then blend in the strawberries and swirl gently.
This smoothie tastes best right after blending, but you can refrigerate it for a few hours and shake or stir before serving.
Blend, sip, and enjoy a little tropical sunshine in your glass!
