Tag yogurt smoothiesAdvertisement
1 mango (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, pitted, and chopped coarse
1 papaya, peeled, seeded, and chopped coarse
2 cups plain yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice plus 4 lime slices for garnish
3 tablespoons honey, or to taste
1/4 teaspoons almond extract
In a blender blend the mango, the papaya, the yogurt, the lime juice, the honey, the almond extract and 1 cup ice cubes in batches until the mixture is smooth and blend in another 1/2 cups ice cubes if desired to thin the smoothie mixture to desired consistency.
Divide the mixture among 4 chilled large glasses and garnish each smoothie with a lime slice.
Serve.
