There’s nothing I love more than a refreshing smoothie in the morning to start my day. Whether it’s a Green Protein Smoothie, Berry Protein Smoothie, or Chocolate Banana Smoothie and or this Mango Avocado Smoothie, smoothies are perfect for a quick nourishing breakfast or snack.
I’ve shared so many smoothie recipes over the years, that have collectively reached millions of views. As a full time food blogger and registered yoga instructor with a love for healthy food I have a speciality in smoothie making.
Unlike many mango smoothie recipes out there, this Avocado Smoothie is banana-free. It’s perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a post-workout boost.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Key Ingredients
- Avocado: Make sure to use ripe avocado. It should be soft enough to easily scoop it out of the skin. Avocado is also delicious in this Southwest Quinoa Salad!
- Mango: Frozen mango: I recommend using frozen mango for the best thick, frosty texture. It also keeps the smoothie cold without needing ice. If you love mango also try this Mango Chia Pudding.
- Spinach: I love adding spinach to smoothies like this Blueberry Spinach Smoothie and this avocado and mango smoothie. It adds an extra boost of nutrients and colour without changing the flavour of the smoothie. It’s an optional ingredient.

How To Make A Mango Avocado Smoothie
Step 1: Add all the smoothie ingredients to a high-speed blender. Add the almond milk first, followed by the fresh ingredients and then frozen ingredients for easy blending.
Step 2:Blend on high until smooth and creamy for about 30 seconds. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more almond milk.
Step 3: Pour into a glass and enjoy it right away while it’s fresh!
Jess’s Tips
- Use frozen mango: This gives the smoothie a thick, cold texture without needing ice. Save the fresh mango to make some Mango Coconut Chia Pudding.
- Add ingredients in the right order: Add almond milk first, then soft ingredients like avocado and spinach, followed by frozen mango. This helps the smoothie blend more easily.
- Adjust consistency: For a thicker smoothie, use less almond milk. For a thinner smoothie, add a splash more milk.
- Ripe avocado matters: Use a ripe avocado for the best creamy texture and flavour.
- Add protein: Add a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for an easy protein boost.
- Sweeten as needed: Depending on how sweet your mango is, you may want to add more or less honey.

A family favourite! So creamy from the mango and avocado.
