Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using coconut yogurt for that creamy texture, but you can swap it with any non-dairy yogurt you have on hand. For the mango, if they're out of season, frozen mango chunks work perfectly too—just thaw them a bit before blending. And don’t skip the jalapeño unless you really can’t handle spice; it adds a unique flavor that’s just magical!
Tips & Notes
- •I love to keep some ripe mangoes in my freezer for smoothie emergencies; they blend beautifully straight from frozen!
- •If you want a thicker smoothie, add a bit more coconut yogurt or reduce the almond milk.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I'll add a handful of spinach for an extra nutrient boost—it's a great way to sneak in some greens without affecting the flavor.
- •You can also swap out the ginger for some turmeric if you're in the mood for something a bit different!
Storage & Freezing
This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good shake or stir before drinking, as it may separate a little.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
