Vibrant Mango Beet Smoothie (Antioxidant-Packed!)

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups frozen mango
• 3/4 cup frozen raspberries (or sub mixed berries)
• 1/2 cup steamed and frozen beet* (or sub more carrot)
• 1 small carrot, chopped (1 small carrot yields ~1/4 cup)
• 1 (1-2 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeling optional
• 1 large handful fresh spinach
• 2 Tbsp lime juice (1 small lime yields ~2 Tbsp or 30 ml)
• 6-7 leaves fresh mint
• 1-2 cups water (or sub coconut water for sweetness and electrolytes)

Method

1. Add all ingredients (starting with the lesser amount of water) to a high-speed blender and blend on high until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed. If it has trouble blending, add more water.
2. Taste and adjust as needed, adding more mango for sweetness or lime juice for brightness!
3. Best when fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, or frozen into ice cube or popsicle molds and stored in the freezer for 1 month.1440 min timer
