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.

Another yummy smoothie!
This one is not one of my favorites. I’m not sure if it’s the almond milk or my sweet tooth but I definitely feel like it needs some sugar! Maybe I’ll try it again with just plain water or coconut water.
I add 1/8 cup of chopped dates to sweeten the drink. I like the flavor!
Drinking this as I watch The Canadian World Junior team beat Slovakia to move on to the semi-finals. Not my favourite smoothie but still fresh tasting and making me feel healthier just by drinking it!!
Modified with OJ instead and my kids loved it!
I don’t have any mangos yes so I can’t say how this is with them. But I did use everything else. Of course I power it up with mu own boosts as well. Quite tasty. I am making these for my husband as well and enjoys them.
This one was a little more difficult for me to blend, but I just added some more almond milk and we were back in business! Not an overwhelming flavor of any one ingredient, so overall a good blend!
This was delicious! I will definitely make it again. I think I will try it with coconut milk though, because I just prefer that over almond milk!
I really thought this was going to be tart with no banana and my unsweetened cashew milk but it was fabulous! I love only consuming whole fruits and vegetables without adding protein powders!
Thank you for the great recipes!
The colour isn’t the nicest but I was pleasantly surprised at the lightness of the flavour. I loudly make again.
This smoothie makes us enjoy the taste of strawberries with a green touch and a fresh and not-too-sweet flavour. Very good!
I tend to make water my go to liquid base and always forget how awesome almond milk is (especially with strawberries) this was a perfect yummy one to start off my birthday !
Jen, my fellow Capricorn! Hope you had a great birthday. 🙂
Can’t give 5 stars because I swapped ingredients. I only had kale on hand so it’s a little bit stronger than spinach. I also had to substitute out mixed berries for strawberries because I didn’t have them. So in essence mine is the purple flamingo. I actually added my plant-based vanilla protein to make this a meal replacement shake and that helped boost the flavor a little bit. I will try it again when I have the proper ingredients.
Love that this is not too sweet . I used oat milk because I don’t really like almond milk.
This one got 4 stars, only because the color is a little off putting. Close your eyes and it goes to 5 stars. It’s delicious and so healthy.
Looking forward to the 30 day challenge and trying the carrot & banana version of this one.
Day#2…. I like flavor… I read ingredients wrong and didn’t use enough strawberries but flavor good!
