NutriSun Smoothie with Papaya, Mango and Coconut Milk | 30 Smoothie recipes (22/30)
This NutriSun Smoothie is a burst of sunshine in a glass. Papaya, half a mango, and just enough coconut milk. Throw in some almonds, pistachios and a pinch of turmeric. One sip and I was hooked!
It’s a cool, colourful, and super healthy smoothie. Perfect for kids too because it’s naturally sweet and sneaks in some palak.
Besides being tasty, it’s filled with benefits. Papaya and mango are great for digestion and skin. Coconut milk and nuts make it creamy and filling. Turmeric and ginger add that immunity power. Palak gives it a green kick!
Let’s Talk About Ingredients
• Papaya
Rich in fibre and enzymes. Gives natural sweetness. You can replace with banana or muskmelon if papaya not available.
• Mango
Adds tropical flavour and creamy texture. If mango is not in season, use frozen cubes or skip and use more papaya.
• Almonds and Pistachios
Give a creamy texture and nutty taste. Soak for smoother blend. You can also use walnuts or cashews.
• Turmeric and Ginger
Boost immunity and digestion. Only a pinch needed. Fresh ginger gives a nice kick.
• Coconut Milk
Makes it rich and lactose-free. You can use almond milk or any other plant-based milk.
• Palak Leaves
Mild taste, full of iron. Add only 2-3 leaves for a nice green touch without overpowering taste.
