Why You’ll Love It
- Strawberries are packed with more vitamin C than oranges (yup!), plus fiber and natural sweetness. They’re low in sugar, help keep blood sugar steady, and swap easily into any berry smoothie.
- Mango is sweet, juicy, and totally tropical. Rich in vitamin A and fiber, mango adds a creamy texture and instant island vibes to any smoothie.
- This smoothie tastes bright, creamy, and lightly tropical. The almond milk keeps it mellow and creamy, and the spinach blends right in—no “green” taste at all.
Strawberry Mango Smoothie Ingredients
- Fresh spinach: Mild and nutrient-packed; look for bright green leaves at your local grocery store or farmers’ market.
- Unsweetened almond milk: Light and creamy with a subtle nutty flavor; opt for homemade almond milk to keep the ingredients minimal. Not gonna do it— I get it. Check out my guide on the best almond milk brands to buy. There are some great ones you can buy!
- Frozen strawberries: Sweet and slightly tart; buy pre-frozen for convenience or freeze fresh berries for peak flavor.
- Frozen mango: This fruit is naturally sweet and tropical. I usually buy frozen mango in bulk from Trader Joes or Costco because it’s cheaper than my local grocery store. Yet if fresh is every on sale, you’ll see my in the kitchen cutting mango and freezing it.

While bananas and pineapple are among the tropical fruits that pair well with mango and strawberry, the combination of mango and strawberry is truly superior. Mango’s natural sweetness and creamy texture create a thick, luscious smoothie, while strawberries add a refreshing, slightly tart contrast. Together, they make a perfectly balanced, flavorful blend—pure smoothie bliss!
Mango pairs well with many fruits, creating a balanced and flavorful blend. Strawberries add a refreshing tartness, while pineapple enhances its tropical sweetness. Bananas provide creaminess, peaches add a juicy mellow flavor, and oranges bring a citrusy kick. Coconut is another great pairing, complementing mango’s tropical notes. Whether you want sweet, creamy, or refreshing, mango is a versatile fruit that blends beautifully.
A strawberry mango smoothie made with 1 cup fresh spinach, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 cup frozen strawberries, and ½ cup frozen mango contains approximately 137 calories per serving. This smoothie is naturally low in fat, with 4g of protein, 26g of carbohydrates, and 6g of fiber, making it a nutrient-dense and refreshing option. Adding a serving of homemade protein powder will slightly increase the calorie count while boosting protein content.
Who knew mangos would be the key to delicious smoothies w/o a banana. This is a definite winner in my book!
At first taste it wasnt my favorite but it kind of grew on me the more I drank it
Day2 Smoothie – This one is alright. Not very sweet, which is ok for me, but I would probably like it better with just water rather than the almond milk. Took this one on the go with me to work.
Not very sweet. Not my favorite. I had frozen fruit, I wonder if I could have controlled the sweetness with fresh perhaps overripe fruit.
I forgot to rate it. Oh and it’s 11:04 am here.
I loved the smoothie. Mine wasn’t pink at all. Ok it had pink dots in it. I used whole almonds soaked overnight instead of almond milk.
I really liked the taste of the pink flamingo. Though the smoothie was not pink. Without the spinach it would be. I added in fresh mint and chia seeds. It was really fresh tasting with the mint.
Easy to make and delicious
Yum!!!!! I had this smoothie for new year breakfast and it was fantastic! Feeling really good !!! It was very tasty and I added hemp and chia seeds to it~ Now it is time for some yoga!
Not as good as the first one. Might need that banana. Im going to drink it.
That’s too bad you didn’t like it as much but that’s the beauty in trying different recipes, isn’t it?! You get to try new things and find out what you love and what you don’t. And, adding a banana to a smoothie you don’t really love the taste of is a great move and can turn a #smoothiefail into a save! 🙂
Loved the fruit combo! Strawberries are the key! Frozen ones are hit or miss. Especially here in Canada!
Not so pink in colour but yummy! Thanks for bringing in the tropics while we live in cold! ☃❄️. Feeling like Florida with Pink Flamingo in my belly! ⛱
Definitely a keeper-refreshing, sweet and healthy!! Love, love, love!!
Loved this! The strawberry and mango is a nice, refreshing combo. Even the kids liked it. I know it’ll be even better when there are fresh strawberries available.
