Strawberry, Mango & Baobab Smoothie | This plant-based smoothie is packed with vitamin c!

A plate full of smoothies? Why, yes. Here you go.

 

Strawberry, Mango & Baobab Smoothie | This plant-based smoothie is packed with vitamin c!

You've probably noticed that I have a thing for blended beverages, and this looks to be my 15th smoothie of 2015. At the current rate, I'll have shared nearly 50 new smoothies by the end of the year. I like where this is headed, and I hope you do too.

A quick look through the smoothie section of my recipe index made me realize that nearly all of the smoothies on the blog utilize bananas as a base. Bananas are fantastic in smoothies because they lend both creaminess and sweetness; however, I know that not everyone loves bananas. So, I figured it was about time to share a banana-free smoothie.

Despite the absence of our speckled friends, this smoothie is silky, creamy, and sweet thanks to the addition of fresh mango. Mango offers a fantastic balance of richness and acidity, making it a great base for banana-free smoothies.

Let's see if I can say the words "smoothie" and "banana" a few more times, shall we? Alright, let's go.

Strawberry, Mango & Baobab Smoothie | This plant-based smoothie is packed with vitamin c!

This smoothie is made by blending frozen strawberries with fresh mango, plant milk, medjool dates, water, and baobab powder. As usual, you can omit the baobab if you don't have it; however, it offers a potent vitamin c boost.

Dreamy. Perfectly smooth. Fruity. Bright. Banana-free. Sweet. Coral-hued.

Cheers to a fresh, energized, and vibrant week.

      Yes! It's awesome. The powder has a slight citrus flavor to it.
