This orange mango smoothie is sweet, creamy and packed with nutrition. It’s a delicious tropical blend that’s hydrating, high in fiber, vitamin C and protein, and makes a healthy start to the day or refreshing snack anytime.
Mango and orange both shine in smoothies. You can also them in this Beet Orange Smoothie, Mango Coconut Milk Smoothie or Spinach Mango Pineapple Smoothie.

- High in protein.
- Source of vitamin C.

- Make it with milk or orange juice.
Ingredients
- Mango: You can make this smoothie with fresh or frozen mango. I like frozen mango for convenience and an extra frosty smoothie.
- Orange: This smoothie uses 1 whole fresh orange. You can use it fresh or freeze it first.
- Banana: Adds a little extra creaminess and sweetness. Frozen banana is best. You can swap the banana for a bit of extra mango if you prefer.
- Liquid: You can use plant-based milk, water, coconut water or for an extra pop of flavour and colour, orange juice!
- Turmeric: Totally optional but adds an extra pop of colour to the smoothie. Keep it to 1/4 tsp if you don’t want to taste it in the blended smoothie.

Awesome smoothy! It’s cold today, but somehow this is satisfying and makes me happy! I forgot the tumeric and didn’t freeze the orange. Can’t wait to make it again tomorrow and add those 2 parts! Thanks for a great recipe!
Is it neccessary to add the protein powder?
It’s not totally necessary but it won’t be as sweet without it. You could add some frozen banana and/or extra orange to replace it, and you may need to adjust the amount of liquid used slightly. Enjoy!
This is my favorite time of the year for refreshing smoothies. I love that this one is made with mangos – my favorite!! Can’t wait to make this.
