Mango, Avocado, & Grapefruit Smoothie

January 17, 2021

Every so often, a flavor combination comes along that makes you tilt your head and squint your eyes, as you wonder, "Would that really be good?" This smoothie is like that, but it catches you off guard and is so delicious.

A few great things about this smoothie - it's dairy free, grain and gluten free (doesn't use oat milk), vegan, and easily made nut free, paleo or whole 30 depending on the liquid and sweetener you use. If you're on any medications, double check to make sure they don't react with grapefruit juice before drinking this smoothie. Otherwise, I think you'll really love it.

Mango, Avocado & Grapefruit Smoothie

Creamy, delicious, vegan. A great smoothie with a deliciously unique flavor.
Servings: 3

Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen mango
  • 1 cup frozen banana
  • 1 large avocado peeled, pitted
  • 3-4 fresh mint leaves
  • 20-ish drops liquid vanilla stevia sweetener
  • 2 tbsp agave nectar
  • 1 cup grapefruit juice unsweetened
  • 1-2 cups coconut water depending on desired consistency

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. If the bitterness of grapefruit isn't your thing, you can add more sweetener or swap for fresh orange juice and reduce or leave out the sweetener.

    I’ve made this 1-2x a week since you posted it! It. Is. So. Delicious. I leave out the sweetener and add spinach. Obsessed!!

  2. I got so excited to finally find a good smoothie recipe without banana... then looked through the recipe and... womp womp ???????? Chris tricked me.

        Just made this morning and it was really delicious! I substituted honey for Agave and left out the Stevia. Also left out the mint as I don't care for it. Would absolutely recommend and will be making again! Thanks Chris!

  3. Yum! I’m super curious to try this. I have everything but the grapefruit at home. Guess I’m going to the store. Happy Sunday! So cute to see Polly helping. ????

  4. Do you have any recommendations for replacing the grapefruit juice? Grapefruit juice can have negative effects with certain medications.

  5. That looks really yummy. I want to try it, but I’ve developed a banana allergy, mango would have been my substitute. Do you think I could increase the mango by a cup, or do you suggest another substitute? It’s surprising how often I have to adapt or forgo recipes.

  6. I’m one of those that cannot do grapefruit and I’m guessing because of the unique flavor profile, there is no good substitute???

Thai-Inspired Basil Beef Stir Fry

I'm back at it today with the Asian-inspired flavors. I always seem to lean that way in my recipes, but why would I use less flavor when I can fill my kitchen with the scent of ginger, garlic, and chilies?! Thai Basil Beef is one of my all-time favorite things to order for takeout. What […]
