STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE # 34: Mango/Pomo Tango - My Original Mangosteen & Pomegranate Recipe

I'm in love. This smoothie is Tropical Heaven in a glass. Try it - no sweetener needed!

These are the ingredients I used to create my original entry in “A Smoothie for @smooth.”

I realize that in most culinary challenges, they have all these photos of the step-by-step process. But this is a smoothie, people. You just put all the ingredients in the blender. That's why I haven't included photos of boring things like me peeling fruit and putting it inside a blender. You guys know how to do that.

This is an easy recipe for people who can't cook! Let's jump in:

(Serves 2)

Ingredients:

• 8 mangosteen fruits (the little purple one in my photo with an "Anime-looking" green top)
• 2 pomegranates
• 2-3 large bananas or 6 small ones
• 200 ml (about 3/4 cup) Coconut milk

No sweetener required!

Step 1:

Peel the pomegranates and mangosteen and juice them. If you don't have a juicer, don't worry. Just get an attachment like this instant juice strainer for your blender. It works great. (You could also use a Nutri bullet to liquify everything if you want to skip this step.) Here's an example of what the blender juice-strainer looks like:

Step 2:

Pour out your strained juice into a glass. Rinse the blender so that no pulp remains inside it. Now pour the juice back into the blender. Add about half a cup of water.

Step 3:

Cut up your bananas and toss them in the blender. Add the coconut milk.

Step 4:

Blend, baby, blend!

Step 5:

Drink it and do a happy dance as the sweet flavors tantalize your taste buds! You're healthy now - congratulations.
