Also known affectionately as “Pink Flamango,” this strawberry mango smoothie was created by my very first SGS rawkstar team member, Dan Mottayaw. That was 8 years ago, and now he’s got a toddler who gulps this smoothie down! It warms my heart to see kids growing up on leafy greens + fruit, like this delicious strawberry mango smoothie recipe.
Strawberries, a powerhouse smoothie ingredient
Did you know that strawberries actually have more vitamin C than oranges? It’s true! These sweet berries shine in this strawberry mango smoothie recipe, both in flavor and in nutrients.
Strawberries are also low in sugar + high in fiber, which makes them a great smoothie addition for anyone who is watching their blood sugar levels. The fiber helps avoid a blood sugar rush, as well as keep your levels more stable. They are naturally sweet, so they are a great sweet treat in a smoothie, or straight off the stem.

Mango: the best tropical fruit
Okay, I know that statement is very subjective, but I really, really LOVE mangoes. I could eat them all day long and never tire of them, blended in this strawberry mango smoothie as well as freshly peeled.
Mango is like the tropical version of a peach. It’s juicy + sweet and chock full of vitamin A and fiber. Make sure and stand over the sink while eating a fresh one, because you’ll have juice dripping down your chin. No shame here! Add some mango to your smoothie to instantly get an island vibe going. I usually buy frozen mango in bulk from Trader Joes or Costco when using it in this strawberry mango smoothie, because it’s cheaper than my local grocery store.

Strawberry mango protein boost
Looking for a tasteless way to add extra protein to this, or any, smoothie recipe? I searched for a good protein powder for YEARS, and then tried to create my own version for years. I got simple + smart and realized I constantly preach about the amazing power of plants, so why not use them in a smoothie boost!? Protein Smoothie Boost has 3 simple, organic ingredients: organic hemp protein, organic chia seeds, and organic flaxseeds. I’d love for you to try it, and I dare you not to fall in love with it! Boost your smoothie with 10g of the cleanest, most quality protein + healthy fat on the market.
