Lychee Mango Smoothie

This tropical smoothie gets its unique sweetness from the lychee fruit.

Ingredients

• 1 cup (240 ml) soy milk
• 2 dates [or 1 Tablespoon honey], pitted
• ½ can (130 g) lychees, drained
• ½ cup (75 g) frozen mango chunks
• 1 cup (130 g) ice cubes

Directions

1. Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the blade base.
2. Run the SmoothiePilot™ Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 45-55 seconds.

Notes

Finding lychees may be hard—try a local Asian grocery store and you will find them on the shelf. This smoothie is a deliciously nutritious way to hydrate and nourish your body. Soy milk provides a creamy base, packed with plant protein and essential vitamins, making it a heart (and whole body!) healthy choice. Lychee adds a burst of vitamin C and antioxidants, while naturally sweet dates contribute fiber and energy-boosting nutrients. And finally the addition of mango adds vitamins A and C.
