This ultra creamy mango smoothie is the best summertime smoothie recipe. It’s made with fresh mango and a handful of ingredients for the ultimate thirst quencher.
I’m a massive mango lover. And when it’s mango season I always grab several fresh mangoes at the market to whip up a variety of recipes. But there’s no recipe easier than this mango smoothie. It takes just three minutes to make and it tastes amazing.
What’s In This Mango Smoothie?
I’m keeping this recipe as simple as possible to really let that sweet mango flavor shine. Here’s what you’ll need.
- Mangoes: I love to use fresh mangoes for this smoothie, but you can also use frozen. Just keep on reading to see a few notes I have on both.
- Banana: If you can freeze your banana ahead of time, that would be great! This will help to add a chilled, creamy texture. But if not, you can also use fresh.
- Milk: Any dairy or non-dairy milk will work with this smoothie, including my almond milk, cashew milk, or oat milk recipes!
- Yogurt: Ideally, greek yogurt would be the perfect option to make this a thicker, creamier smoothie. But you can use any plain dairy or non-dairy yogurt.

Should You Use Fresh Mango or Frozen Mango?
I’m a fan of seasonal eating so if mangoes are in season I’ll use fresh mangoes for this smoothie recipe. You can cube the mango or use a glass to remove the mango from the skin (so easy).
If you use fresh mango then make sure you’re using a frozen banana in the recipe to keep the smoothie nice and thick and cold.
But if fresh mangoes aren’t available or in season, then absolutely use frozen mango. If you use frozen mango, you can use a fresh banana. In other words, just make sure at least the mango or the banana is frozen.
How To Make A Mango Smoothie
Like any other smoothie recipe, all you need to do is toss all the ingredients into a blender and blend away! Just note that if you’re using frozen mango, you may need to use your tamper to push down the mixture so it’s evenly blended.
Pour your mango smoothie into a jar, pop in a straw and slurp up this creamy, sweet, delicious smoothie (and try not to get brain freeze).
How Many Mangoes to Make One Cup?
An average 12-ounce mango will provide approximately one cup of cubed fruit. If you’re using frozen mango for this recipe, you’ll use two cups of frozen cubed mango.
Can you Make this Mango Smoothie Vegan or Dairy-Free?
Absolutely! You can make this mango smoothie with or without dairy milk. And if you’d like homemade recipe options for some of the ingredients, check out my cashew milk, almond milk, or oat milk. I also have homemade yogurt or homemade coconut yogurt (dairy-free).
You could also use store-bought dairy-free milk and dairy-free yogurt. Or you could use full-fat greek yogurt for an ultra-thick consistency. It’s entirely up to you.

Mango Smoothie Recipe
Description

Lisa’s Tips
- If you’re using frozen mango and a frozen banana, you may need to use the tamper on your high-powered blender to ensure everything gets blended smoothly. I use my Vitamix A3500.
- I love to pour my smoothies in a mason jar and use either a stainless steel straw or glass straws.

All that carb and no protein or fat! (relatively none from the dairy esp if ppl use low fat dairy)
Throw 3 eggs in the blender. U will never know they’re there except for extra richness to ur smoothie.
Smoothie was delicious! Is the nutritional info for 1 serving or for the 2??
Happy you loved it! The nutritional info is per serving. Enjoy!
I made it with frozen mango chunks and about 1 well ripe banana. It was very banana-y, but in a good way. I also used vanilla yoghurt, since that’s what I had. My second serving I put fresh blueberries on top, and that was good too! Will be using this again :)
Hi Monica – Wonderful! I’m glad you love this mango smoothie and all the variations you made with it.
Taste too much like banana.
Next time I’ll leave the half Nanna out.
I want the mango taste.
Tastes heavenly!!!🧡 I made it with unfrozen bananas and mangoes, yet it is still great. 🌟😍🙏
Hi Anali – I’m glad you love this mango smoothie!
Can I use almon milk for this mango smoothie?
Yes, you sure can!
Can i add 20g of protein powder and it will still be as good?
Yes, I think so.
Awesome!
Great recipe!
Super simple, cool, and refreshing.
Me and my husband love it, so we make it once a week in the summer.
I suggest adding a teaspoon of orange juice for a slightly acidic yet refreshing taste.
Keep it up!
Hi Cindy – Glad you and your husband love this smoothie!
This was really refreshing. Thank you.
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
YUMMY YUMMY IN MY TUMMY
I agree! ;) Happy you enjoyed it!
Yummy. I used both frozen mango and banana so it turned out thicker than expected and since my bananas were pre-sliced, so I may have used more than a “small banana” in my recipe. Still, it did not last long in my cup. Split it three ways.
Glad you enjoyed this mango smoothie, Terri!
It was good. I would suggest adding half cup of frozen mango along with the two fresh mango and only half a frozen banana. Enjoy!
Can you use vanilla greek yogurt?
Thank you
Yes, you can if you’d like!
It’s really helpful for the mango lovers!
I’m happy you love the recipe!
I have made this recipe twice without banana. It is so smooth and creamy. We love it, especially since we just had our mango season here in Maui!
Happy you love the smoothie, Suzanne!
For me there doesn’t seem to be a functional link to the video.

So good! I added ice and it tastes like a sorbet 🤭
How much does this recipe yield please?
I’d say about 2 cups!
Its alright. Doesn’t really taste like a mango smoothie more like banana and yogurt
Hi Jane – you can always reduce the amount of banana if you’d like.
The recipe was great. I also blended ice together with it
I used one mango instead of two and used a little less than recommended and it ended up tasting more like banana then mango 😑 is there anyway I could get it to taste more like mango?
You would need to use both mangoes to have it more mango flavored.
Very great recipe! The smoothie tasted amazing…hard part was it was pretty tricky to blend together so I added a bit more milk to it also to help it blend better. I used frozen mango with cream ice- blocks! You know the ones you get from the 🍦 truck? :D
delicious
Glad you enjoyed this smoothie recipe Liam!
Best Smoothie I’ve had in years!
I made it and it was so good!
what is the best blender you recommended?
I will always be a Vitamix user. But, you can check out my post on the different Vitamix models to see which one would suit your needs best!
Absolutely Delicious!! I made with fresh mango’s, frozen banana, almond milk, Greek plain yogurt!! I definitely will be making this again!!!
Yay, I’m happy you loved the smoothie, Gail!
Delisus so creamy and smooth, used frozen mango but let it defrost before blending
Wow! This is definitely a keeper, my family LOVED it.
I used fresh banana, frozen mango, Greek yoghurt, milk and honey then topped the smoothie with toasted coconut flakes. Delicious!
Glad the whole family enjoyed this mango smoothie!
Do you have to use banana and if so can you taste it in the smoothie??
Banana helps to thicken and balance out the flavors.
Great recipe! Some mangoes might be bigger than others, so I suggest adding some more milk if your smoothie looks more like….. a puree.
Easy to make and deliciously refreshing!! Very good! 😋
Surprisingly so good for such an easy recipe with so few ingredients!!! And so creamy, almost like frozen yogurt 🤤 My poor little Nutribullet could not handle the lack of liquid (I used frozen mango) so I really think I could’ve done without the yogurt and just did a cup of milk. I had to add a few extra splashes of milk to get it to blend. I also added about half a scoop of vanilla flavored protein powder. I always add either that or a splash of vanilla to all my smoothies, adds a nice touch. Two thumbs up 👍🏻 👍🏻
Creamy deliciousness. I’m going to make it again tomorrow.
This one is definitely a keeper during mango season!
Whoa! This is so good! This tastes exactly like the juice bar smoothies! So glad I can make one at home. Even gave it my own booster shots of tasteless protein powder and collagen Peptide. I’m going to be addicted to these. The portions were so bang on for the taste and consistency I like.
It was great! I added a little bit of orange juice too :)
What can you substitute bananas with? I can not have bananas. Thank you
You could add a quarter of an avocado which would add creaminess, or even frozen cauliflower (I have another post on that) if you’d like a veggie boost!
I’m trying these for my boss who loves the Mango smoothies from Trader Joes, We work early morning, can I make these & freeze before I take to work?
Yes, you can freeze!
This recipe is super creamy and delicious! I love it!
Made mine with frozen Mango Fresh Banana, Greek Yoghurt and fresh full Cream Milk
Absolutely delicious, my Freezer is full,of Mangoes
Today I had the worlds best mango smoothie it was delicious 😋
Yay, love to hear that! Thanks Melissa!
Amazing 🤩 I substituted yogurt for Greek yogurt not as thick and flavour is a bit different but it was fantastic 😆
Yay! Glad you loved this mango smoothie Ella :)
LISAAAAAAA! you’re God sent. Currently sipping on this yummy yummy delicious smoothie. I used frozen mangoes which I just happened to restock from Costco last week and the results….. AMAZING!!!!
Happy to hear you’re loving this mango smoothie Victoria!
My smoothie turned out nice and creamy! Love this recipe. So simple & so delicious
Glad your mango smoothie turned out perfectly Mereana!
Made this recipe and it was delicious! I didn’t have any frozen banana so I substituted a fresh peach. Slightly different flavor but still worked great and so yummy!
Glad this worked out with fresh peach instead of banana.
This was amazing. I halved the recipe, and added a bit of orange and pineapple juice, (and ice) it was perfect. Thanks for the recipe!
Love the idea of adding orange and pineapple juice Eva!
