MANGO BUTTERMILK SMOOTHIE



Mango Buttermilk Smoothie image

This mango-banana-strawberry smoothie is inspired by lassi, the creamy yogurt drinks popular throughout India. It's as easy to make as a smoothie should be. Just toss everything into a blender - the flesh of an entire mango, a handful of strawberries, half of a banana, a cup of buttermilk, a bit of honey and a few ice cubes - then blend to cool and creamy perfection. If you don't have fresh mango, frozen works just as well, and if you don't have buttermilk on hand (who does?), plain old yogurt will do just fine. Add a splash of milk to loosen if it gets too thick.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup low-fat buttermilk
2 ripe bananas, cut into 2-inch-thick rounds
11 dried pitted dates
1 teaspoon honey
Pinch of salt
1 cup ice

Steps:

  • Blend all ingredients in a blender on high speed until mixture is smooth and ice is finely ground. Pour into two glasses.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy melons: The riper the melons, the sweeter and more flavorful your smoothies will be. Look for melons that are heavy for their size and have a slightly sweet smell.
  • Chill the melons and buttermilk: Chilling the melons and buttermilk before making the smoothies will help them blend more smoothly and create a refreshing, cool drink.
  • Use frozen fruit for a thicker smoothie: If you like a thicker smoothie, add some frozen fruit to the mix. Frozen fruit will also help to keep the smoothies cold longer.
  • Add some greens: To boost the nutritional value of your smoothies, add a handful of leafy greens, such as spinach or kale. Greens are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
  • Sweeten to taste: If you find that your smoothies are too tart, add a little bit of honey, maple syrup, or another sweetener to taste.
