- Ripe bananas taste best in smoothies. You can tell a banana is ripe if the peel is yellow and has some brown spots.
- If you're freezing your own mangoes, avoid unripe ones. They're too firm and sour for smoothies. Ripe mangoes are mostly red-orange and have some give when you squeeze them.
- To thin the smoothie, add a small amount of almond milk and blend for 10 seconds.
