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.
Husband said, “it’s not green.” I substituted blackberries in for the strawberries, which I think made this smoothie more tart and less sweet. I used water instead of almond milk because I only had vanilla flavoured almond milk at home and thought that would be a strange mix. I also used more spinach and less mango. Hubby said it tasted more earthy, which could be from the blackberries and/or extra spinach. I added chia seeds and pea protein powder to my portion. I look forward to trying this one again, but with strawberries next time.
It was good and so easy!
I always change it to a meal replacement adding my Ideal Lean Protein Powder! & Chia Seeds
It was a bit bitter for some reason (maybe it was because of the mango?) I still like it as it is healthy
I enjoyed this smoothie-but I liked Day 1’s better. I did add Kale to this one which may have added the less than desirable taste. ( I did ‘massage’ the kale and added a bit of lemon juice ). Looking forward to tomorrow!!
It was a bit thicker than I enjoy but my family loved the taste and so did I!
The strawberries made it a bit too tart for my liking (maybe they weren’t sweet enough) but the smoothie still gets a pass since it’s super healthy!
This one was delicious! I added a little protein powder to make it a meal.
I added peppermint, which I think tastes great with both mango and strawberries. I also had this for a light lunch so I added chia and MCT oil, too.
Blended at home and took it to work, sipping as I’m typing. It’ still thick and creamy. Cold, too, since it’s been in the fridge.
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!
