A quick and easy homemade version of the creamy McDonald’s mango smoothie, delivering a refreshing tropical treat with simple ingredients and a velvety texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150 g) frozen mango chunks
  • ½ cup (120 ml) Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat or low-fat)
  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons honey (or maple syrup/agave syrup as vegan substitutes)
  • ½ cup (about 4 cubes) ice cubes
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) milk or dairy alternative (whole milk, almond milk, or oat milk)

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients: Measure out frozen mango chunks, Greek yogurt, orange juice, milk or alternative, honey, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
  2. Add the frozen mango chunks to the blender first, then spoon in the Greek yogurt.
  3. Pour in the orange juice and milk, followed by honey and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the ice cubes last.
  5. Pulse a few times to break up the mango, then blend continuously for about 45 seconds or until smooth.
  6. If the blender struggles with the ice, stop and stir with a spatula, then blend again.
  7. Taste the smoothie and adjust texture or sweetness by adding more milk or honey if desired, then blend briefly again.
  8. Serve immediately in a chilled glass or mason jar, optionally garnished with a slice of mango or a sprig of mint.

Notes

Use frozen mango chunks for best texture; fresh mango can be used with extra ice cubes. Pulse frozen fruit first before blending continuously. Vanilla extract enhances flavor. Adjust sweetness with honey gradually. Clean blender immediately after use for easier cleanup.
