Dragon fruit mango orange smoothie

To make a dragon fruit mango orange smoothie, start by peeling and cutting a medium-sized red flesh dragon fruit and a medium-sized mango into small pieces. In a Thermomix blender, combine the dragon fruit, mango, and 1 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice, and blend until smooth. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can add a little honey. Pour the smoothie into serving glasses, then stir in 0.5 cup of plain yogurt. Serve immediately or refrigerate it to enjoy cold with ice.

This dragon fruit mango orange smoothie contains plain yogurt, which is not vegan. However, you can easily make it vegan by substituting the yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative, such as coconut or almond yogurt. This way, you can still enjoy the delicious flavors while keeping it vegan-friendly.

If you don't have orange juice on hand, you can substitute it with other fruit juices like pineapple juice or apple juice. These alternatives will provide a different flavor profile but will still complement the dragon fruit and mango nicely. Just ensure that the juice is freshly squeezed for the best taste.

To store leftover dragon fruit mango orange smoothie, pour it into an airtight container and refrigerate it. It’s best consumed within 24 hours for optimal freshness. If you want to enjoy it later, you can also freeze the smoothie in ice cube trays and blend the cubes with a little liquid when you're ready to drink it.

A dragon fruit mango orange smoothie pairs wonderfully with light breakfast options like granola, oatmeal, or a fruit salad. It also complements savory dishes such as avocado toast or a spinach salad. For a refreshing snack, enjoy it alongside some nuts or a slice of whole-grain bread with nut butter.
