Mango Raspberry Smoothie
Ali Redmond
A squeeze of lemon juice adds bright flavor to this frozen fruit smoothie. Mango provides plenty of sweetness without having to add juice, but if it’s too tart for you, a touch of agave will do the trick.

Aloe Smoothie
Jamie Vespa
Many people swear by aloe for glowing skin, and this smoothie is a delicious way to get it into your diet. You probably know aloe as a topical skin soother, but it also delivers antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Some people don’t love the flavor of aloe, so this recipe has plenty of fruit to help balance the flavors. Make sure you’re buying pure aloe vera meant for eating—or that you’ve got the correct aloe vera plant if you’re DIYing. Read more about aloe vera benefits and cautions.
Blueberry & Avocado Smoothie
Casey Barber
Just four ingredients combine for a refreshing, just-sweet-enough smoothie that’s a real treat. Blueberries add the sweet, fruity flavor and avocado adds a creamy, smooth texture to this healthy smoothie.
Mango-Ginger Smoothie
Red lentils are a sneaky source of plant-based protein in this healthy smoothie recipe. The lentils add 3 grams more protein than an equal-size portion of nonfat plain yogurt and 4 grams more fiber than a typical serving of protein powder.
Anti-Inflammatory Cherry-Spinach Smoothie
This healthy smoothie is not only delicious—it also provides anti-inflammatory foods. It starts with a base of creamy gut-friendly kefir and includes cherries, which can lower the inflammatory marker C-reactive protein. Heart-healthy fats in avocado, almond butter and chia seeds deliver additional anti-inflammatory compounds, while spinach offers a mix of antioxidants that sweep up harmful free radicals. Fresh ginger adds zing, plus a compound called gingerol, which preliminary studies suggest may improve inflammatory markers of heart disease if consumed daily.
