Why Carrots and Mangoes in a Breakfast Smoothie?
Carrots might seem unusual for a smoothie, but they have fantastic health benefits. Rich in beta-carotene, they promote healthy vision and glowing skin. Paired with mangoes, you get a double dose of vitamin C and vitamin A, along with a burst of natural sweetness.

Healthy Carrot Mango Smoothie Recipe Notes
- For this smoothie recipe, you can use fresh or frozen banana. However, I recommend only using fresh carrots, not frozen, for the best taste.
- You can use any variety of apple that you like. Some good options are Granny Smith, Pink Lady, or Gala.
- Frozen mangoes are easiest to work with, and they also make your smoothie cold, without the need to add ice.
- If you’re using unsweetened coconut milk, you may want to add a touch of raw honey for some extra sweetness. If your coconut milk is sweetened, you may not need to add honey.
Note: For the best and smoothest consistency, I recommend using a high speed blender, such as a Blendtec.
