02 - Blend on high speed until completely smooth and creamy.
03 - Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • This smoothie delivers all the tropical vibes without ever leaving your house.
  • The chia seeds create a surprisingly creamy texture while keeping you fueled and full longer.
02 -
  • If you blend too long with ice, the smoothie can get watery—pulse just enough to break the ice down.
  • Chilling the glasses beforehand gives your drink a fun frosty finish and keeps it cold longer.
03 -
  • Always taste your mango before blending—under-ripe fruit can throw off the drink and needs a bit more sweetener or juice.
  • Letting the smoothie sit for just a few minutes after blending will reward you with a pudding-like treat thanks to the chia seeds.
