Jump to RecipeCostco Mango Smoothie Recipe Ingredients
- 2 cups diced frozen mango, plus a few thawed cubes for garnish
- 1 small frozen banana
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, or any milk, plus more as needed
- ½ cup whole milk Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- Fresh mint or basil leaves, optional, for garnish
How To Make Costco Mango Smoothie
- Combine Ingredients: Place the frozen mango, frozen banana, almond milk, Greek yogurt, and fresh lime juice into a high-speed blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick to blend, add more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Garnish and Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses. Garnish with a few cubes of thawed mango and fresh mint leaves, if using. Serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
- How do I get a super thick and frosty smoothie? The key is to use frozen fruit. Using both frozen mango and a frozen banana creates a thick, ice cream-like texture without needing to add ice, which can water down the flavor.
- How can I make this smoothie vegan? For a delicious vegan version, simply replace the whole milk Greek yogurt with full-fat coconut milk (from a can) or your favorite dairy-free yogurt.
- How do I adjust the sweetness? This smoothie is naturally sweetened by the fruit. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup to the blender.
- How do I get the smoothest texture? For the creamiest result, use a high-speed blender if you have one. If you have a standard blender, you may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times and add a little extra liquid to help it blend properly.
What To Serve With a Mango Smoothie
This smoothie is a great light breakfast or snack on its own, but it also pairs well with:
- A piece of whole-wheat toast with coconut butter.
- A small bowl of granola or a handful of almonds.
- A hard-boiled egg for extra protein.
How To Store a Mango Smoothie
Store: Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately after blending for the best taste and texture. If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container or jar with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The smoothie may separate, so be sure to shake or stir it well before drinking.
