# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like a tropical treat but sneaks in anti-inflammatory turmeric without any bitterness.
  • You can blend it in under five minutes, even on the busiest mornings.
  • It's naturally vegan and gluten-free, so almost anyone can enjoy it.
  • The ginger and lime give it a refreshing zing that wakes up your taste buds.
02 -
  • Always add the lime juice—it cuts through the turmeric's earthiness and makes the whole drink taste brighter.
  • Use frozen fruit if you want a thick, frosty texture without diluting it with ice.
  • Don't skip tasting before sweetening—ripe mango is often sweet enough on its own.
03 -
  • Freeze your mango chunks ahead of time so you always have them ready—it makes blending faster and the smoothie colder.
  • Use a high-speed blender to fully break down the turmeric and ginger for a silky texture without any gritty bits.
  • Add a pinch of black pepper with the turmeric—it enhances absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric.
