Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen strawberries (halve fresh ones and freeze for best texture)
  • 1 cup frozen mango (pre-cut frozen mango chunks work great)
  • 3/4 to 1 cup liquid (milk of choice, coconut water, or orange juice)
  • 1/2 banana (optional, for extra creaminess and sweetness)
  • 1/2 cup yogurt (Greek or dairy-free; optional for protein and tang)
  • 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, only if you want it sweeter)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for a warm, round flavor)
  • A squeeze of lime (optional, brightens everything up)
  • Ice cubes (optional, if you’re using fresh fruit and want it thicker)

Method
 

  1. Add liquids first: Pour your milk, coconut water, or juice into the blender base. This helps the blades catch the fruit easily.
  2. Layer in fruit: Add frozen strawberries and mango. If using banana or yogurt, add them now.
  3. Flavor boosts: Add vanilla, a squeeze of lime, and sweetener if you like. Start with less—you can always add more.
  4. Blend until smooth: Start on low, then increase to high for 30–60 seconds. Scrape down the sides if needed.
  5. Adjust texture: Too thick? Add a splash more liquid. Too thin? Add a few extra frozen fruit pieces or an ice cube or two.
  6. Taste and tweak: Check sweetness and acidity. Add another squeeze of lime or a drizzle of honey if needed.
  7. Serve right away: Pour into a chilled glass for the best frosty texture.
