MANGO GINGER MINT SMOOTHIES
I recently started an herb garden so I have been adding herbs to everything. The mint in this smoothie gives it a freshness, and mixed with the creamy kefir and mango and a bit of ginger for spice, what you get is the perfect summer drink to enjoy on the patio.
MANGO GINGER MINT SMOOTHIES
Ingredients
- 1½ cups unsweetened kefir
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 packet ginger tea granules
- ¼ cup warm water
- 2 sprigs sprigs of mint leaves about 10 leaves, plus more for garnish
Instructions
- Dissolve the ginger tea in 1/4 cup of warm water.
- In a blender, add kefir, mango, ginger tea, and mint leaves.
- Blend until smooth.
- Garnish with mint and serve.
Notes
You can use yogurt instead of kefir, but I love kefir. It has so many health benefits.
The ginger tea is what sweetens the drink (aside from the mango). I buy the ginger honey tea that comes in granules. If you can’t find it, add 1 teaspoon fresh ginger and 2 tablespoons of honey or sugar.
This can be made in advance and kept in the fridge, but is best when made fresh.
Want to spike it? Add white rum.
