Notes
For a thicker smoothie, start with fewer ice cubes. Use frozen mango instead of canned to skip ice cubes. Greek yogurt boosts protein. Honey can replace sugar substitute. Drain mango well to avoid watery smoothie. Layering ingredients correctly keeps blender efficient. Adjust ice or add water/milk to fix smoothie consistency.
