Get your day off to a perfect start with this delicious drink.

Suggestions:

Calypso™ mangos have firm, fibreless flesh with a smaller seed, and a distinctively blushed skin. Mangos are an excellent source of vitamins A, C and E, as well as containing fibre, beta carotene and other related carotenoids.

Mangos are delicious on breakfast cereal, in fruit salads, in jams and chutneys, and in drinks, desserts and savoury dishes.

Ingredients:

1 cup Calypso™ mango, peeled and diced

1 Tbsp non-fat yogurt

1 handful of crushed ice

1 sprig of fresh mint for garnish

Directions:

Place Calypso™ mango, yogurt and ice in a blender or food processor and blend.

Pour into glass and garnish with a sprig of mint if desired.

Variations:

You might want to add a little milk if the smoothie is too thick, or a little brown sugar for more depth of taste.

For a sugar free, dairy free version, add one to two frozen bananas (freeze it without skin!) and add pure water, instead of milk, until your desired consistency. For sweetener, really not needed if you want to taste the pure fruit itself rather than hamming up the fake sweet taste, you could add honey or agave syrup or stevia. These are sugar substitutes i use in all my cooking. Hope you like this alternative version! :)
