Dragonfruit Citrus Glow
Dragon fruit + mango bring vitamin C and antioxidants; banana adds potassium and body; mint + lime brighten and help the whole thing taste extra fresh. Almond milk keeps it creamy but light. (Protein/collagen are optional add-ins if you want satiety.)
Yield: ~12-14 oz (≈475 ml) • Time: 3–4 min
Recipe
100 g frozen dragon fruit (I use Sprouts Brand) (¾ cup)
80 g frozen mango (I use Wyman’s) (½ cup)
80 g frozen banana (I use Sprout’s Brand) (½ cup)
240 g almond milk (1 cup)
5–7 fresh mint leaves (≈1–2 g)

Toss everything in the blender; blend 45–60 sec until silky.
Too thin? Add 40–60 g (⅓–½ cup) ice and quick-pulse. Want creamier? Replace 80 g (⅓ cup) almond milk with carton coconut milk.
