* 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
* 1/2 banana (sliced)
* 1/2 mango (diced)

Instructions:

1. Combine all ingredients except for the optional toppings in a high-speed blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec.

Note: You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to your taste preferences. Also, feel free to experiment with different types of milks, such as oat milk, almond milk, or soy milk.
