Let's be real—mimosas are amazing. But sometimes, you want something a bit more… substantial. And maybe something you can enjoy before noon without feeling too scandalous, right? That's where this Mimosa Morning Smoothie comes in. It's like a regular mimosa's health-conscious, overachieving cousin. This idea came to me after a particularly rough week. I needed the celebratory feeling of a mimosa, but also, I needed actual nutrients. Enter: smoothie magic.
Think of this as your secret weapon against those blah mornings. It’s packed with vitamin C, thanks to our orange juice base, and gets a lovely creamy texture from Greek yogurt (or your favorite dairy-free alternative!). The mango adds sweetness and that sunny, tropical vibe that makes you feel like you're on vacation, even if you're just facing a mountain of emails. I mean, a girl can dream, can't she?
And because it wouldn't be a mimosa smoothie without that signature sparkle, we top it off with a splash of Prosecco or sparkling wine. Just enough to make things festive without going overboard. You can totally adjust the amount to your liking (or skip it entirely for a truly virtuous start to the day!). Plus, this smoothie is so incredibly easy to customize. Throw in some spinach for extra greens, add a bit of ginger for a zesty kick, or swap out the mango for pineapple—the possibilities are endless! This is your morning, your rules.
Start your day with a Mimosa Morning Smoothie, blending the bubbly joy of a mimosa with the healthy goodness of a fruit smoothie. This recipe will give you a vibrant, refreshing, and guilt-free way to celebrate any morning!

📖 Instructions
Gather Your Ingredients: Collect all your ingredients. This includes fresh orange juice (about 1 cup), frozen mango chunks (1 cup), plain Greek yogurt (1/2 cup), a splash of Prosecco or sparkling wine (about 1/4 cup, or more to taste), and any optional additions like spinach, ginger, or pineapple.
Prep the Mango: If using fresh mango, peel and chop it into chunks. For the best smoothie consistency, freeze the mango chunks for at least 2 hours before blending. This will give your smoothie a nice, thick texture without needing to add ice.
Combine Ingredients in the Blender: Add the frozen mango chunks, orange juice, and Greek yogurt to a blender. Make sure the blender is clean and ready to go. You dont wanna find last night’s dinner in there. Trust me, that has happened to me before, and it wasnt pretty.
Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes, depending on your blender’s power. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more orange juice until it reaches your desired consistency.
Adjust Sweetness (Optional): Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness as needed. If it's not sweet enough, add a drizzle of honey or a splash of agave syrup. Remember, the sweetness of the mango can vary, so this step ensures it's perfect for your palate.
Add the Bubbly: Pour the smoothie into a glass. Top with a splash of Prosecco or sparkling wine. Adjust the amount to your liking. For a non-alcoholic version, use sparkling cider or club soda.
Garnish (Optional): Garnish with an orange slice or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance. This makes it feel extra special, especially if you're serving it to guests...or just want to feel fancy on a Tuesday.
Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Mimosa Morning Smoothie right away! The bubbles will fade over time, so it’s best enjoyed fresh. This smoothie is the perfect way to start your day with a burst of flavor and a touch of celebration.
