Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries (about 150g)
  • 1 medium ripe banana (about 120g)
  • 1/2 cup frozen mango chunks (about 80g)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (about 120g, or use coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 1/2 cup orange juice (about 120ml, or substitute apple juice or coconut water)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, about 15ml)
  • 34 ice cubes
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • Optional: 1 handful spinach or kale
  • Optional: 1 scoop protein powder

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients: frozen strawberries, banana, frozen mango, Greek yogurt, orange juice, ice cubes, and sweetener if using.
  2. Add orange juice to the blender first, followed by yogurt, frozen fruits, banana, and ice cubes.
  3. Blend on low speed, gradually increasing to high, for 40–60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup if desired. If too thick, add more juice or milk; if too thin, add more frozen fruit or ice.
  5. Add optional chia seeds, protein powder, or greens and blend for another 10–15 seconds until well combined.
  6. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately. Garnish with fruit slices or seeds if desired.

Notes

Use at least half frozen fruit for best texture. For vegan, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup. Adjust sweetness and thickness to taste. Add greens or protein powder for extra nutrition. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours or freeze in popsicle molds.
