Notes
Sweeteners: If your mango isn't sweet enough or you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add a natural sweetener like honey, agave syrup, or a few dates. Taste the smoothie first before adding sweeteners to avoid over-sweetening.
Optional Additions: Feel free to customise your smoothie by adding other ingredients like fresh ginger for an added kick, a handful of spinach or kale for added nutrients, or a scoop of protein powder for a post-workout boost.
Blending Tips: Start by adding the liquid base, followed by the mango chunks, turmeric powder, black pepper, and any additional ingredients. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If using fresh mango, you may need to add a few ice cubes to achieve the desired consistency.
Serving and Storage: Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately to enjoy its freshness. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a quick stir or shake before consuming.
Caution: Take care when handling turmeric, especially on kitchen worktop as it can stain or discolour equipment, plates, etc. Lemon or white vinegar can be used to remove the stains
