Ingredients

• 1 cup frozen mango chunks
• 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2-inch knob fresh ginger, peeled
• 1/2 banana, frozen (optional, for creaminess)
• 1/4 cup water or coconut water (to thin)

Directions

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all ingredients. Make sure your fruits are frozen for a thicker, colder smoothie.
2. Blend the Smoothie: Place all the ingredients into a high-speed blender: frozen mango, frozen pineapple, Greek yogurt, orange juice, fresh ginger, and the optional frozen banana and water.
3. Blend until Smooth: Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Critical Tip: If the smoothie is too thick, add more water or orange juice, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
4. Final Step: Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig or a slice of orange for a finishing touch.
