Raspberry - Mango Smoothie
"Toss a few things in the blender, out comes a great chilled drink with a LOVELY color and GREAT taste! This is thinner than most smoothies. Frozen fruit means you can skip the ice cubes!"

Great, great smoothie, & well worth making again! I'm not one to include the ice cubes in any smoothie that I make with frozen fruit, so this was right up my alley! Did use the honey & I did cut back on the milk by 1/2 cup, but then I love it thick! Thanks for the great recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe cooking game] -
Very nice smoothie! We tasted mostly the raspberry flavor but that's okay, it was still delicious! ZWT 3 -
I usually drink a smoothie for breakfast and I this one appealed to me because it had a lot of ingredients I use separately but never all together. I used a fresh mango and frozen raspberries. I scaled this to 1 serving, using 1/2 cup mango. This was wonderfully fruity and a nice thickness. Thanks Debber, for posting. Roxygirl -
Yum! I used all homemade lemonade for the milk as well. Used homemade vanilla yogurt in a lesser amount just to use it up. For the vanilla I used halal vanilla paste (very good quality). I couldn't really taste the mango.
