Mango Pineapple Juice is a refreshing drink made with ripe mangoes and pineapples blended into a smooth, sweet beverage. It’s perfect for hot days or when you want a fruity, colorful treat.
I like to imagine I’m on a tropical vacation every time I sip this juice. It makes me feel sunny and relaxed, even at my kitchen table!
For a cooler twist, add a few ice cubes or a splash of sparkling water. It’s quick to make and always a hit with friends or family.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Mango: The star of this juice, mango adds sweetness and creaminess. I like ripe mangos for best flavor. If they’re not available, frozen mango chunks work well. Fresh peach or apricot can be a sweet substitute.
Pineapple: This brings a tangy, tropical zest that balances the sweetness. Use fresh or canned pineapple. For an extra kick, a tiny squeeze of lime works perfectly. Frozen pineapple pieces make blending easier.
Orange Juice: Adds natural sweetness and a citrus brightness. Freshly squeezed is ideal, but store-bought works fine. If you want less sugar, try adding a splash of lemon juice.
Honey or Agave: Enhances sweetness if needed. I prefer honey for a richer flavor, but agave is a good vegan alternative. You can omit or substitute with a little maple syrup.
Ice: Makes the juice cold and refreshing. Use as much as needed to get your desired thickness. If you want a thinner drink, just add more liquid instead of ice.
How do I blend the juice smoothly without lumps?
Start by adding the liquids first—orange juice and honey. Then add the fruit and ice. Blend on low first, then increase to high. If it’s chunky, stop and stir, then blend again until smooth. Using a high-speed blender makes this easier.
- Step 1: Add liquids to your blender, then the fruit and ice.
- Step 2: Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on high until smooth. Stop and stir if needed.
- Step 3: Pour and enjoy! For thinner juice, add more orange juice or water and blend again.
