Notes

Make sure you are using a blender that is high powered, like a Ninja blender, to make sure that it's capable of crushing the frozen fruit.
I prefer frozen mango, it'll make the smoothie cold, thick and creamy, but you can also use fresh mango cubes.
Taste and adjust the sweetness- you may want to add a little more honey, or a squeeze more lime juice,

Make this vegan: Use plant based milk and coconut yogurt

Storing leftovers: I prefer enjoying this fresh but leftovers will last in a tightly covered container in the fridge overnight. Shake if it separates, and enjoy!
