I've been craving light, hydrating foods now that Summer seems to finally be here and I decided to make a smoothie but didn't want anything too acidic or heavy.
So I paired the lightness of coconut milk with the delicate, subtle sweetness of mango to create this smoothie.
It has a sweet, light, refreshing flavour that will make your taste buds as well as your stomach happy :-)
