KN, p. 332 “Mango Smoothies”

If there are no paragraph separations in the article, double-click on the title and they will appear.  🙂 A mango is a delicious summer fruit that can be found fresh in the stores now, or in the freezer section all year round. We sometimes eat ripe mangos, chins dripping with juice. But, this season of stifling weather compels us to drink vitamin filled fruit smoothies to help us with hydration. Here are two mango smoothie variations: Mango Watermelon Smoothie (pictured above) and Four Fruit Mango Smoothie, a blend of mangos, blueberries, dark cherries, and pear juice that results in a WOW purple beverage. Easy, yummy, satisfyingly thirst quenching.
