This colorful multi-layered raspberry mango swirl smoothie is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the taste buds.

Raspberry and Mango Smoothie

Although any time is a good time for a smoothie, they’re especially refreshing when served ice cold on a hot day.

This mango and raspberry swirl smoothie is made up of 2 separate smoothies, a mango and a raspberry smoothie.

With each delicious sip, you’ll taste either raspberry or mango with the exception of the swirl parts of the smoothie where it’s a combination of both flavors.

The ingredients in each smoothie are the same except of course that one has mango and the other one has raspberries.

And each smoothie also has banana in it for good measure.

Both the mangos and the raspberries in this smoothie are frozen, plus crushed ice is added so the smoothie is as ice cold as possible.

Raspberry and Mango Smoothie

Order of Adding Ingredients

A rule of thumb is that liquids and soft ingredients go in first, and the harder ingredients go in last.

For example to the blender jar,

  • First, add liquids such as juice, water or milk
  • Second, add soft ingredients like yogurt, fresh (unfrozen) cut fruit and berries, or honey
  • Then add items such as frozen cut fruit and berries, vegetables or nuts
  • Lastly add the ice

When blending a smoothie, to avoid an air pocket from forming by the blade in the blender jar, there needs to be a good balance between the liquid and frozen ingredients (including ice).

For best results, serve this smoothie right away while ice cold.

Let’s check out the ingredients.
