RECIPE | MANGO HONEY SMOOTHIE

Mangoes are one of my favorite fruits.  In fact, last week I had mangoes in three different forms: frozen, dried and fresh! Today I bring you a painfully easy mango smoothie courtesy of one of my friends.  While in Mo'orea she told me she loves to blend mangoes, milk and honey as a refreshing drink. Ever since then I have been aching to give it a try.  I didn't use any exact measurements and you can tailor the proportions to your own personal preference.  Using a small Magic Bullet type blender, I filled it about 2/3 of the way with frozen mangoes, letting the milk (2%) fill the crevices up to the same 2/3 level.  Then, I added about a teaspoon of honey for a little extra sweetness.  Blend it all together and voila, a delicious smoothie!  I can't wait to try adding some frozen pineapples and strawberries too.
