Dragon Fruit- Tropical and exotic fruit that is a beautiful magenta color and sometimes white. This fruit adds the perfect amount of sweetness to your drink or smoothie. Make sure to use frozen dragon fruit for this recipe.

Strawberries-You can use frozen or fresh strawberries which pairs so well with the light sweetness of the dragon fruit.

Mango-Frozen mango chunks will play into the tropical flavor of this smoothie. If you don't have frozen mango you can replace it for frozen pineapple.

Banana-Fresh bananas will give this smoothie the creamy texture
Protein Powder- Choose your favorite protein powder and add the serving suggestion to the smoothie.

Protein Powder- This is personal preference, but make sure to find one that is clean in ingredients and low in added sugar. My favorite is this Rootz Protein Powder.

Chia Seeds - A great source of protein and fiber, you can never go wrong by adding this ingredient to your smoothie.

Dairy Free Milk-So many milk options, almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, soy milk or cows milk would work great for this smoothie.

Expert Tips and FAQS To Make A Great Smoothie

Milk Options
The best part about smoothies is you can easily adjust to your liking. I love almond milk or coconut milk for this smoothie but oat milk is also a great option.

Use A High Power Blender
When making a smoothie using a good quality blender that is powerful is important to prepare a great smoothie.

Storing and Freezing A Smoothie
Most smoothies are enjoyed right after they are made, but I do make smoothies in advance and pour them into the glass with lid and store it in the freezer until ready to enjoy it! I also love having them ready for a healthy carpool snack.
