Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup mango, diced
- 1 carrot, peeled and chopped
- 1 inch ginger, grated
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Dice the mango into small cubes, ensuring you remove the pit. Peel and chop the carrot into smaller pieces for easier blending. Grate the ginger using a fine grater or microplane.
- In a blender, combine the diced mango, chopped carrot, and grated ginger. Make sure to distribute the ingredients evenly for a smooth blend.
- Pour in the coconut water, which will add a refreshing flavor and help with the blending process. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can adjust the amount of coconut water according to your preference.
- Add the tablespoon of lime juice to the blender. This will enhance the flavors and add a zesty kick to your smoothie.
- If you like your smoothie chilled, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender. This is optional but recommended for a refreshing drink.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. This should take about 30-60 seconds, depending on the power of your blender.
- Once blended, check the consistency of your smoothie. If it's too thick, you can add a little more coconut water and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into two glasses, dividing it evenly. You can garnish with a slice of mango or a sprinkle of grated ginger on top if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Mango Carrot Ginger Smoothie!
Tips
- Choose ripe mangoes for maximum sweetness and easier blending. Look for fruits that yield slightly when gently pressed.
- For an extra smooth texture, grate the ginger very finely or use a microplane grater.
- If you want to boost nutritional value, consider adding a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder.
- Use frozen mango chunks instead of fresh to create an instantly chilled smoothie without diluting flavors.
- For a creamier consistency, substitute coconut water with coconut milk or Greek yogurt.
- Always blend on high speed and pause occasionally to scrape down the sides, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
