Why You’ll Love It
- This smoothie hits that sweet spot between fresh and filling. Coconut water keeps it light and hydrating, while frozen mango and banana give it natural sweetness and a creamy texture. The spinach blends right in, adding nutrients without changing the flavor.
- If you’re still learning how to make a smoothie, this recipe is simple, forgiving, and great for building confidence.
- Spinach is one of my favorite leafy green vegetables for smoothies because it has a mild flavor and blends smoothly. Pairing it with citrus fruits like orange helps brighten the flavor and makes the greens virtually undetectable.

Mango Orange Green Smoothie Ingredients
- Spinach: Fresh or frozen both work well
- Coconut water: Adds hydration and subtle sweetness
- Orange: Peel first to avoid bitterness
- Frozen mango: Key for thickness and tropical flavor (check out how to cut mango for prep tips)
- Banana: Adds creaminess and balance
Recipe Tips
- If you ever find yourself with extra spinach, learning how to freeze spinach can save money and reduce food waste—plus frozen spinach blends beautifully.
- If your smoothie feels too thin, here are easy ways to make a smoothie thicker.
- This smoothie is perfect for advance prep. Turn it into freezer packs by portioning the fruit and spinach ahead of time. When you’re ready, dump everything into the blender, add liquid, and blend. I share more tips in my guide to frozen meal prep smoothie packs.
- A good blender makes all the difference when blending leafy greens and frozen fruit. If you’re shopping around or upgrading, check out my recommendations for blenders for smoothies to find one that fits your needs and budget.

I loved this one with the coconut water!
I’m mad about this mango smoothie! Thanks for making it easy Simple Green Smoothies to kick start better health in 2019!
Yesss this one is so yummy! Love the combo of coconut water, orange and mango. I added a touch of honey and vanilla protein powder – I can drink this all day!
I used fresh orange juice instead of an orange and skip the coconut. Despite the substitutions this was fantastic!
Another good one…I added a tablespoon of coconut oil and 2 tablespoons of course I send and it kept me full all morning!
Oranges are my least favorite fruit but boy, this smoothie changed my mind about that!
Creamy and refreshing. Definitely on my list to drink on the regular
I really enjoyed this smoothie! Not overly sweet, just right. I’m sharing with my toddler daily and he has loved them all! Time to blend him his own!
Nice light smoothie, tasty and refreshing! I used the cars cars oranges I purchased at Costco. So good!
This smoothie is perfectly light and refreshing. My kids loved it! A keeper recipe for sure.
Love it – besides Mango is just the best fruit ever! and combined with the sweetness of the navel oranges … Oh sooo awesome !!!
Lovely glowing green ! Used plain water as I had no coconut water to hand. And replaced the orange with pineapple as was at work and didnt have time to peel and slice an orange. Was delicious.
When I am out of coconut water I just add some coconut oil to my water 🙂
This was very tasty!!
Loved this one! One of my favorites so far! Very refreshing!
Madness indeed.
Speechless.
This was one of our favorites! Looking forward to to the orange julius tomorrow 🙂
Smooth and refreshing. Love the blend of orange, mango and banana. This will be one of my regular smoothies as I almost always have oranges, mangos and bananas around.
I liked the orange and mango flavors, but I didn’t care for the tang of the coconut water. I’ll have to try it again with just water instead!
I love this one too. I have been a little hesitant to use coconut water in the past but this was delicious.
I love orange! Delicious.
