Yes! I like to add 1 tsp of turmeric to this smoothie. Also, the turmeric isn’t overpowering by any means. It has a nice pleasant taste. Feel free to add 1 tsp more if you’d like!
Mango Turmeric Ginger Smoothie Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you’ll need for the mango turmeric ginger smoothie.
- Milk – You can use regular dairy milk, non-dairy milk (almond, oat, etc) or water for this smoothie recipe.
- Banana – Freeze the banana the night before making this smoothie. It helps to make the smoothie more creamy.
- Mango – You’ll need a bag of frozen mango to make this recipe.
- Fresh Ginger – I used 1-inch of peeled fresh ginger. This adds a nice kick to the recipe, but if you don’t like ginger you can skip this part.

Then in the morning or afternoon when you’re ready for this delicious treat, just add all the ingredients to the blender and blend until you see a smooth and creamy consistency.
