Spicy Mango Smoothie

I'm still riffing on Meredith Baird's Everyday Raw Detox recipes. This morning I needed a little sunshine in my smoothie. This recipe is pretty much the same recipe as in her book with a couple of substitutions. I love grapefruit and a hot pepper together. The grapefruit flavor in this smoothie is subtle but goes well with the spice. The mango is what you see and taste. It's a bright, sweet smoothie with just the right touch of spice.




Spicy Mango Smoothie:

2 cups fresh or frozen mango
1 1/2 c. grapefruit juice
1 lime peeled
1 red hot chili pepper

Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender. It's so naturally beautiful no garnish is needed, but I sprinkled a dash of cayenne pepper on it anyway. Serves 1-2.
