Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Perfect Mango Vanilla Smoothie

For a richer flavor, use frozen mango chunks instead of fresh.
If you don't have maraschino cherries, get creative! Sprinkles, chocolate shavings, or even a small scoop of whipped cream make great alternatives.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste. Some mangoes are naturally sweeter than others.
For an extra-thick smoothie, add a frozen banana to the blender.
