Mango stands out in this recipe with its sweet, juicy flavor that combines into a beautiful creamy drink. Enjoy this simple smoothie with or without vanilla powder for a refreshing treat.
When you eat mango before bed, the fruit's phytochemicals, along with amino acids like glycine, glutamine, and cysteine, combined with fructose and glucose, reach the brain and quickly replenish depleted neurotransmitters. This allows most people suffering from insomnia to finally get a good night's rest.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups peeled and chopped fresh mango (or thawed from the freezer);
- 1 tsp coconut water or more if needed;
- ¼ tsp vanilla powder (optional).
Method of preparation:
Add the mango, coconut water , and vanilla powder (if using) to a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If desired, add a little more coconut water for a thinner consistency. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
