My kids love to help me in the kitchen, especially if I let them take the lead with a recipe creation. This one was developed by my youngest. His grandma brought us some ripe Ataulfo mangoes, so he thought they would be perfect for his blender drink called Sweet & Sour Mango Smoothie.
We make a lot of green smoothies at our house, so this ray of sunshine was a nice change.
It’s not really a morning smoothie. I personally think it’s too sweet, but I’m sure kids would think that it’s perfect for breakfast.
Ideally, serve this as a treat, and I bet this Sweet & Sour Mango Smoothie would make amazing popsicles!
