• Mango is an excellent source of copper and folate, two nutrients that are especially important during pregnancy.
• Mango contains immune-boosting properties like vitamin C.
• With great quantities of magnesium and potassium, mangoes support the cardiovascular system and can reduce inflammation of the heart. So it’s great for heart health.
• Pineapple is an excellent source of the mineral manganese, which helps your body metabolize food and promotes strong bones.
• Pineapple contains fat-burning enzymes, making it a great fruit to eat for weight loss.
• With a high level of antioxidants, pineapples have cancer-fighting properties that can fight off free radicals.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Mango Chunks: Use frozen mangoes.
• Coconut Water: Packed with electrolytes, this natural beverage helps you stay hydrated for longer.

• Turmeric: This popular spice can lower blood cholesterol levels. Use fresh turmeric or turmeric powder.
• Persian Cucumber: These have a high water content which keeps you feeling hydrated and refreshed.

How to Make a Mango Pineapple Smoothie

Combine all the ingredients in a high-powered blender and blend until smooth. If your smoothie is thicker than you’d like, add more liquid. If you would like your smoothie thicker, add ice or more frozen fruit, until you reach your desired consistency.

Tips To Nail The Recipe

• You can use fresh or frozen fruit but if you use only fresh fruit, you will need to add ice to get that frosty consistency. For the best texture, at least one of the fruits should be frozen. If you prep ahead, slice fresh fruit and place it in a sealed bag in the freezer overnight.
• Use a high-speed blender for a smooth, creamy texture. This is especially important when blending frozen ingredients because they tend to be chunky.
• If you have leftover smoothie, squeeze a little lemon or lime juice on top in order to prevent the fruit from oxidizing.

Recipe Variations and Customization

• Fresh Fruit: Use fresh mango and pineapple. Add ice for texture and to make it cold.
• Other Fruits: This smoothie recipe works with a variety of fruits. Some other fruits to mix and match include strawberries, peaches, and frozen banana.
• Vegetables: Use zucchini instead of cucumber. You could also add spinach or kale.
• Spice: Can’t find raw turmeric? Use 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder instead.
• Non-Dairy Beverages: Depending on the flavor and consistency you want, you can replace coconut water with coconut milk, almond milk, soy milk, or any other non-dairy milk.
• Greek Yogurt: Add protein and healthy fats to your mango pineapple smoothie when you include a 1/4 cup of greek yogurt.
• Juice: For a sweeter smoothie, cut the coconut water measurement in half and add one cup of fresh mango or pineapple juice. Alternatively, use orange juice for a more complex flavor.
• Sweetener: Add 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup or agave.
• Protein: Add your favorite protein powder or keep it natural with a teaspoon of chia seeds, hemp seeds, or flaxseed.
• Mango Pineapple Smoothie Bowl: Thicken the smoothie by adding additional frozen fruit. Then pour it into a bowl and add your favorite toppings like oats or granola.
