Mango Pineapple Smoothie Benefits

Even though mangos are delicious in flavor, they’re actually an excellent fruit full of health benefits. Mangos are low in calories, high in nutrients, and a great way to add some extra support to your heart as well.

Pair that with the added health benefits of pineapple (it helps to aid digestion), and it’s safe to say that this mango and pineapple smoothie is always an excellent choice. 

Tropical Mango Pineapple Ingredients

With less than a handful of ingredients needed, the time to make this pineapple mango smoothie is now. You’ll be done and sipping away before you even realize it. This creamy pineapple mango smoothie is so simple and fast to make.

• Mango: Fresh mango or frozen mangos work fine. Use what you have or buy whatever is on sale at the store. Either are interchangeable. Keep in mind though that frozen fruit will yield a thicker smoothie.
• Coconut milk: Adding coconut milk creates the most delicious/tropical combo but use your own milk of choice. To reduce the calories, use almond milk.
• Pineapple: Fresh fruit or frozen pineapple is totally fine, too. The same rule applies to the mango tip above.
• Lime juice: A squirt of lime juice is a great way to add a bit of citrus flavor. Fresh lime juice works best, but lime juice in a bottle is acceptable.

Optional Add-Ins and Variations

Even though the ingredients are simple to whip up this mango pineapple smoothie, you can change up a few ingredients as well. 

• If you want a tad bit more citrus, you can add 1/2 cup orange, peeled. Or add some orange juice.
• Add a ginger flavor by putting in 1-inch fresh ginger that is peeled and diced. 
• Toss in a 1/2 frozen banana if you want it creamier. 
• A tablespoon of flax seeds or chia seeds in the smoothie adds an extra boost and texture. Or add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
• Swap out the lime juice for lemon juice easily as well.
