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.

I might sound like a total weirdo right now…but who cares! I only had chocolate almond milk, and it made my smoothie taste almost like a chocolate covered strawberry! I loved the tart flavor the strawberries and mango added to this smoothie (I’ll try this smoothie with regular almond milk soon lol)
This smoothie was ok. I might try coconut milk next time. I usually like mango and strawberry but it was missing something.
Using both the frozen fruits made this too cold for us. I put it in the fridge for later and it was better to my taste anyway.
I have experienced all the smoothies so far as mildly sweet. Is that how Green Smoothies should be?
Hi Wade! The ones that were chosen for the smoothie challenge are definitely on the sweeter size, I find that makes it a great way to get into green smoothies.
It’s ok. I think I’ll try it with a different milk than almond milk.
LOOKS ARE ONLY SKIN DEEP!
That definitely holds true for this Smoothie. Combining the Green of Spinach, the Beige of Almond Milk, and the Red of Strawberries…. doesn’t result in the most beautiful color….. Luckily, that’s where it ends!
This drink is truly a creamy, and refreshing drink. The Strawberries aren’t overpowering and the ingredients are proportioned just right.
Couldn’t believe the pairing of spinach and strawberries. Was husbands favorite so far.
I love this smoothie it is my fav. I an taste the strawberrier. I will be making this agian. So yummy.
What a delicious Smoothie. Creamy with a nice refreshing strawberry flavor!
Another favorite. Replaced mango with pineapple due to allergies.
Love tasting the strawberries. Delicious!
Enjoyed the mango strawberry combo. Haven’t had that in awhile. Delicious!
I did not use milk though, I used water and my vanilla proteini.
The strawberry mango smoothie has a subtle sweet flavor I like but was so thick I had to add an additional 1/4 cup of almond milk to get it blended. I’m going to be sad to see this challenge come to an end.
I didn’t really care for this smoothie. I think if my fruit were fresh instead of frozen it would have been better. I also would have omitted the protein powder, personally.
Overall good flavor, but felt it needed a little bit more mango for sweetness. Also needed to add a little more liquid to make it less thick.
Wow !!! My favorite yet! So good!!
Day 6 was nice to have a change with the strawberries!
I also loved having the almond milk. I added ginger and a lil bit of cacao powder it was delicious!!
Still waiting for my protein powder to deliver!
Day 6 dowwwwwn!
Cmon day 7….the number of completion!
I really liked this one!! Haven’t tried this combo before, but I can see it becoming a regular!
