Recipe Tips

Frozen fruit thickens smoothies. Using frozen mango slices will help thicken up the smoothie.
If the smoothie comes out too thick, add orange juice, pineapple juice or water in small amounts until the desired texture is achieved.
If you prefer a thicker texture, add more ice and continue blending.
For a less sweet smoothie, replace orange juice with coconut water or coconut milk.

Smoothie Variations

Add yogurt. Regular and Greek yogurt with tropical flavors are great ways to thicken smoothies.

FAQ

How do you make a healthy smoothie?

If you're looking for a healthier mango tango smoothie, omit the sherbet and orange juice and use coconut milk or coconut water in its place.
