Mango Turmeric Smoothie
Mango Turmeric Smoothie, aka The Yellow Gazebo Smoothie, is a creamy smoothie that is sweetened with juicy mangoes and flavoured with toasted coconut. The turmeric added to the smoothie creates the vibrant yellow color and has a multitude of health benefits that can be found in my Curry Kale Quinoa Bowl Recipe.
Why Smoothies?
When I work with clients who are looking to clean up their diet, I often recommend they start their day with a smoothie. Smoothies can be made in less than 5 minutes and taken on the go making them super easy to fit into your busy morning routine. They make a great breakfast because they are loaded with vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber and healthy fat. If you ever find yourself in a smoothie rut, check out my e-Book, The Holistic In The City 21 Day Smoothie Guide which contains 21 smoothie recipes and the secret formula for delicious and nutritious smoothies.

I created this smoothie to honor the awesome clinic I work at, Yellow Gazebo Natural Health Care! At the clinic I meet with clients one-on-one to help them overcome digestive problems, food allergies, seasonal allergies, low energy, stress, skin issues, joint pain, muscle pain and many other health complaints. Check out this video to get a feel for the clinic and to see how easy it is to make my Mango Turmeric Smoothie!

I have no ginger today except powdered I ran out this morning. MY turmeric is raw and fresh can I use it instead. I love turmeric…good stuff. Going to try it will let you know how it turns out.
Good morning Marjorie! I haven’t tried it with fresh turmeric, I can’t wait o hear how it went and how much you used! Powdered ginger will work too, it will give the smoothie flavor but you won’t get the same bite that you get from fresh ginger.
I tried it this morning. I made it in my food processor, which is probably a lot less powerful than the blender you use. It had an extremely strong taste. I unwittingly used shredded coconut (toasted) instead of coconut flakes. I also threw the flax seeds in whole. So, the smoothie had quite a munchy mouth feel. But the weird thing is that it now looks like a chemistry experiment. It bubbled up like crazy while in the bowl I poured it into.
If I am brave enough, I may put some coconut cream in to smooth it out a bit.
Hi Susan! I have never heard of a smoothie bubbling up like a science experience, how exciting! The turmeric can have a strong flavour, if you are not used to it I recommend using 1/2 of what is listed. If you are using a weak blender, you want to grind your flax and coconut in a coffee grinder before adding it otherwise, they will stay whole and the smoothie will be grainy. If you don’t have a coffee grinder I recommend using chia seeds and coconut butter which is already smooth.

[…] 30. Mango Turmeric Smoothie I love adding turmeric so smoothies with mangos, oranges, and other orange-colored foods. It enhances the natural beauty of the fruits and really gives the smoothie a beautiful, sunny glow that you can practically feel going down while you’re drinking it! […]

Very cool, I’m so happy you enjoyed it!
What is the best raw plant base protein power to get. The one I was using, called six star plant based protein power, I had to stop using it because it was starting to make me have stomach diarrhea and I hv read that not all protein power are good or give you the same benefits. Please advise
Hi Valarie, thank you for such a great question. You are right, not all protein powders are not created equal! I go into detail about this in my book 21 Day Smoothie Guide. My favourite brand is Garden of Life.
