Are Mango And Coconut a Good Combo?

Tropical flavors work very well together, this includes mango and coconut.

The reason why coconut and mango work well together, is both of their unique tastes complement each other so well.

Coconut adds creaminess and enhances the tropical flavor, whilst mango provides an earthy and sweet flavor.

If you ever need a combination that won’t let you down, always choose tropical flavors. You won’t be disappointed with that!

Benefits of Mango Coconut Smoothie

What do coconut and mango do for your body? The benefits of both of these ingredients are so many, but in a smoothie, with other healthy ingredients, the benefits are enhanced even more.

Let’s break down the benefits of drinking a banana mango coconut smoothie:

  • Provides a good source of vitamins and minerals: The smoothie combines various nutrient-rich ingredients like mango, banana, and chia seeds, providing essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, potassium, and magnesium as well as omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Boosts energy levels: The natural sugars from mango, and banana, provide a quick energy boost, making the smoothie an ideal pre- or post-workout option.
  • Promotes muscle recovery and growth: The protein powder in the smoothie provides protein, aiding in muscle repair and growth after physical activity.
  • Supports digestion: Chia seeds are a good source of dietary fiber, promoting healthy digestion and potentially easing constipation.
  • Satiates hunger: The combination of protein, fiber, and healthy fats in the smoothie can help keep you feeling fuller for longer, potentially aiding in weight loss.
  • Supports skin health: The abundance of vitamins and antioxidants from mango and banana can contribute to healthier-looking skin.
  • Enhances immune function: The vitamin C content from mango and other nutrients in the smoothie can help strengthen the immune system.

Optional Substitutions

There are some substitutions you can make if you want a slightly different protein mango smoothie recipe:

  • For a mango coconut milk smoothie, instead of coconut water, use coconut milk instead.
  • Add berries if you like, for a more nutrient-dense smoothie.
  • If you are vegan, use vegan protein powder, and replace the honey with agave or maple syrup.
  • If you don’t like bananas, use pineapple instead, which will make an even greater tropical-flavored smoothie.

How To Store This Healthy Mango Coconut Smoothie

This smoothie is quite thick, which means it won’t ‘split’ when you store it.

To keep it fresh for longer, when you make the smoothie, store it in the fridge, and consume it within 2 days max.

Do note, that the smoothie may change its color slightly but that doesn’t mean it’s not safe to drink. Just make sure you drink it within the time frame provided above.
