Cheng Can Mix: Mango Smoothie ★★★

New Toy, New Hobby: Magic Bullet. I can finally make my own Mango Smoothie without paying a high price. Mango Smoothie is easy to make, and it's retail quality. Recipe below. I think I can replace fresh mango with frozen mango, since I am so used to the Jamba Juice frozen texture. Fresh mango maybe too pulpy for smoothie. Can add alcohol to make it a cocktail drink too.

Mango Smoothie

Making Mango Smoothie from Real Fresh Mango

All Ingredients Ready to Blend

Recipe:
1 cup of diced Mango (can be frozen)
1 cup of Vanilla Yogurt
1 cup of Ice
1 tablespoon of Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)
Milk (optional)
Granola for garnish (optional)

Directions: Put a handful of diced mango aside to make the smoothie chunky. Just blend everything else together and pour it with the mango chunks into a cup. Garnish with Granola (or more commonly, garnish with Mint Leaves). Enjoy.
