Also known affectionately as “Pink Flamango,” this strawberry mango smoothie was created by my very first Simple Green Smoothies team member, Dan Mottayaw. That was 8 years ago, and now he’s got a toddler who gulps this smoothie down! It warms my heart to see kids growing up on leafy greens + fruit, like this delicious strawberry mango smoothie recipe.

Powerhouse Smoothie Ingredient
Did you know that strawberries actually have more vitamin C than oranges? It’s true! These sweet berries shine in this strawberry mango smoothie recipe, both in flavor and in nutrients. They can be used in any berry recipe as a substitute.
Strawberries are also low in sugar + high in fiber, which makes them a great smoothie addition for anyone who is watching their blood sugar levels. The fiber helps avoid a blood sugar rush, as well as keep your levels more stable. They are naturally sweet, so they are a great sweet treat in a smoothie, or straight off the stem.

The Best Tropical Fruit
Okay, I know that statement is very subjective, but I really, really LOVE mango. I could eat them all day long and never tire of them – blended in this strawberry mango smoothie as well as freshly peeled.
Mango is like the tropical version of a peach. It’s juicy + sweet and chock full of vitamin A and fiber. Make sure and stand over the sink while eating a fresh one, because you’ll have juice dripping down your chin. No shame here! Add some mango to your smoothie to instantly get an island vibe going.
I usually buy frozen mango in bulk from Trader Joes or Costco because it’s cheaper than my local grocery store.

One of the best smoothies – the strawberries and mango are a delight!!! My husband loved it!
A little thick but if you substitute a quarter to a half of the almond milk with water it really smooths out nicely. The strawberry flavor really comes through.
This one didn’t taste so good to me. I don’t usually care for so many strawberries in my smoothie. I doctored it with about 1/3 banana and more spinach (1+ cups). Then it was very good.
Very fresh and delicious!
This smoothie was very refreshing. I’m trying to increase my protein intake so I added pea protein powder. I notice this smoothie I had to add more liquid to it which made a bit more than 2 servings. I shared with my toddler (without the protein powder for him). Maybe I need to leave the fruits in the refrigerator overnight or soak it longer in the liquid.
This one was just a little bland but still drinkable. Definitely need to thaw out the frozen fruit or this on gets a little to thick.
Really liked yesterday’s smoothie, but was not a huge fan of today’s! I used frozen strawberries and mango and it made the smoothie very thick and icy. Excited to try again tomorrow!
It was a little bland, but I think my strawberries needed to be sweeter.
Tastes great. Color leaves a little to be desired. And so very good for you.

This recipe appears to be dependent upon the sweetness of the strawberries being used. In my case, they were not very sweet and it made a difference – almost a bitter result. I appreciate the change up using almond milk to create some creaminess in texture; however, I might make this one in the future with coconut water.
Loved this one – even my 7 year old son – who typically will not eat/drink anything green asked to try this one today and he liked it 🙂 Then I added chia and avocado to make it a meal replacement.
This was good, but I think if I let it thaw a bit first my blender could have done a better job without me adding a ton of almond milk to thaw it out. Can’t wait to try it again!
Loved the texture
This is one I enjoyed and will make again. I used frozen strawberries and mangos with spinach and unsweetened vanilla almond milk, which is my favorite smoothie base. I boosted it with almond butter and hemp hearts to make it more of a meal replacement. Yum!
Not quite as good as day one, but we really liked it. I used a cup of almond milk and a cup of water for this.
Was excited about this recipe. Left me a little disappointed. It was pretty bland. Tried it with both fresh and frozen strawberries. Thinking that fresh strawberries would be better if they were in season (didn’t have a really good selection). Did add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to sweeten up a bit.
