Mango Soy Milk Smoothie
Why this recipe works
- Ready in minutes: Everything blends together quickly, making this an easy fresh drink for breakfast, a snack or a light dessert.
- Bright, balanced flavour: Lime sharpens the sweetness of ripe mango and keeps the soy milk from tasting flat.
- Naturally creamy: Chilled soy milk gives the smoothie body without making it heavy, while ice keeps the finish cool and refreshing.

Ingredient notes
- Choose a ripe mango: A fragrant, yielding mango gives the best flavour and usually needs little or no added sweetener.
- Use chilled soy milk: Well-chilled unsweetened soy milk keeps the drink clean-tasting and lets you control the sweetness.
- Sweeten after tasting: Blend first, then add honey or agave only if the mango needs extra sweetness.
Texture tips
- For a thicker smoothie: Use lightly frozen mango pieces and reduce the ice slightly so the texture stays creamy rather than watery.
- Blend until fully silky: Stop and scrape down the blender once if needed, especially if the mango pieces are sitting above the blades.
Dietary alternatives
- Make it vegan: Replace the honey with agave syrup, or leave the sweetener out if the mango is already sweet.
Make-ahead tips
- Best served immediately: The smoothie has the freshest flavour and lightest texture straight after blending.
- Refresh after chilling: If refrigerated, re-blend briefly with a little ice before serving to restore the cold, creamy texture.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Peel the mango, cut the flesh away from the stone and add it to the blender. Squeeze in the lime juice.
- Add the soy milk, honey (if using) and ice cubes. Blend until smooth, cold and creamy, scraping down the sides once if needed.
- Taste and add a little more honey if you want it sweeter, then blend briefly again. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Recipe notes
Tips
- If your mango is very sweet, skip the honey and let the lime do the work of balancing the flavour.
- For a thicker smoothie, freeze chunks of mango for 30 to 60 minutes before blending, then reduce the ice cubes slightly if needed.
Substitutions
- Replace lime with lemon for a slightly softer citrus flavour.
- Replace honey with agave syrup for a vegan-friendly sweetness.
Storage
- Refrigerate up to 1 days
- Best served straight away. If storing, refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 1 day and re-blend with a couple of ice cubes to freshen the texture.
