If the winter blues have got you down, the best place to head is to a warm, sunny beach with blankets of white sand! During the winter the MOV only has blankets of white snow, and if you can’t make it to the beach you will have to improvise. With this tropical mango and strawberry smoothie in your hand, the refection of the snow shining through your windows, your sunglasses on, and your heat turned up, you will never know the difference!

What you’ll need: 

  • 2 tablespoons of milk
  • 1 ¾ cups of orange juice
  • ½ cup of mango chunks
  • ½ cup of cut strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar or honey (optional)
  • It is best to make the smoothie in two parts- mango then strawberry.

For the mango part:

Put the ½ cup of mango chunks, ¾ cup of orange juice, 2 tablespoons of milk, and ½ tablespoon sugar or honey into the blender and blend until smooth.

Poor the first part into a glass (or a pineapple if you happen to have one handy) and get ready for the next step!

For the strawberry part:

Put the ½ cup of cut strawberries, 1 cup of orange juice, and ½ tablespoon of sugar or honey into the blender and blend until smooth.

Poor the strawberry on top of the mango, grab your sunglasses and you are ready for a relaxing “beach” day!
