Refreshing mango smoothie

Cool off in the heat with one of these delightful juicy mango and fresh mint smoothies – as well as being very good for you, they are also quite refreshing.

Ingredients:

  • 2 large mangoes, as ripe as possible
  • 150 milliliter skimmed milk
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 1 handful ice cubes
  • 1 handful fresh mint leaves, plus extra to serve
  • Brown sugar or honey, to taste

Method:

1. Remove the skin and cut the juicy flesh off the mangoes.

2. Place the fruit in a blender or food processor, along with any juice left on the chopping board.

3. Add the milk, limejuice and zest, ice and mint leaves and give it all a good whiz until smooth.

4. Taste, and if you like things on the sweet side, add a sprinkling of brown sugar or honey and give it another quick whiz.

5. Chill in the fridge before serving, then garnish with a few mint leaves.
