Ingredients
Fruits
- 1 cup / 150 g / 5.3 oz frozen strawberries
- 1 cup / 150 g / 5.3 oz frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 cup / 150 g / 5.3 oz frozen mango chunks
Liquids & Sweeteners
- 1 cup / 240 ml / 8 fl oz orange juice (freshly squeezed recommended)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (optional, can substitute honey or agave syrup)
Instructions
- Add liquids. Start by pouring the orange juice and maple syrup into your blender. Give it a quick pulse to blend the liquids and evenly distribute the sweetener.
- Add frozen fruit. Add the frozen strawberries, pineapple chunks, and mango chunks into the blender container on top of the liquids.
- Blend until smooth. Process the mixture on high speed until everything becomes smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. If the smoothie is too thick, gradually add additional orange juice to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve. Pour the smoothie evenly into glasses and garnish with fresh strawberries, mango chunks, and pineapple if desired. Enjoy immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor, though store-bought 100% orange juice works well too.
- The maple syrup is optional and can be replaced with honey or agave syrup to suit your preference.
- Adjust the amount of orange juice depending on your preferred smoothie thickness.
- Best served immediately to enjoy the freshness and prevent separation.
