Strawberry Mango Spring Smoothie

Makes 3½ cups

1 cup coconut milk
1 banana, peeled, sliced, and frozen
1 mango, skinned and chunked
5 large strawberries, hulled
Combine ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

First: Our Top Tips

1. Invest in a blender with at least an 800-watt motor. (Vitamix is the gold standard.)

2. Prepare frozen fruit ahead to save time. Cut and freeze on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag or container.

3. Frozen bananas go a long way. Peel, slice, and freeze them. This go-to smoothie ingredient adds thickness without taking over other flavors.

4. Add ingredients like milk, yogurt, water, or juice first to get the blender moving. Then, add lighter, drier ingredients, like leafy greens, followed by heavy ingredients like ice and fruit pieces.
 
This smoothie sounds really good and refreshing. I have all the ingredients on hand so I think I am going to go blend up myself one to enjoy while I'm surfing the web. I, also, enjoyed the Top Tips, There is some good advice there.
