Ingredients

• 1 large carrot, peeled and chopped
• 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
• 1 banana
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
• 1/2 cup ice cubes
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Begin by prepping all your ingredients. Ensure the carrot is peeled and chopped into small pieces for easier blending. Dice the mango and break the banana into smaller chunks.
2. In a blender, combine the chopped carrot, diced mango, banana, orange juice, yogurt, and honey (if using).
3. Blend the mixture on high speed until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is well combined.
4. Add the ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the smoothie is chilled and has a slightly frothy texture.
5. Pour the smoothie into glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy the vibrant colors and the refreshing taste!

Helpful Tips and Variations

• For a dairy-free version, replace the yogurt with almond milk or any plant-based yogurt.
• If mangoes are out of season, frozen mango chunks work just as well.
• Serve the smoothie in chilled glasses to keep it refreshing, especially on hot days.

Storage and Substitutions

• Refrigerate any leftover smoothie in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
• Substitute orange juice with apple juice or pineapple juice for a different flavor profile.
• If you’re avoiding added sugars, skip the honey and rely on the natural sweetness of the fruits.

Pairings and Complements

• Pair this Carrot Mango Smoothie with a slice of banana bread or a handful of trail mix for a wholesome snack.
