Celery Mango Smoothie: Recipe and Nutrition

A celery mango smoothie is a blended drink of celery, mango and water that takes 5 minutes to make and yields 2 servings.

Mango gives the smoothie sweetness, while celery adds a fresh, mildly savory flavor. It is a fruitier variation of a celery detox smoothie and needs no added sweetener.

What ingredients do you need?

For 2 servings, gather:

Celery: 100 g (about 1 cup), chopped
Mango: 165 g (about 1 cup), peeled and diced
Water: 240 ml (1 cup)

Use ripe fresh mango for the sweetest flavor, or use unsweetened frozen mango for a colder, thicker smoothie. Remove the mango skin and pit before measuring the fruit. The mango in this recipe provides the same fruit-forward flavor found in a mango detox smoothie.

Wash the celery under running water and trim the ends. Chop it into small pieces, especially if your blender has difficulty breaking down fibrous vegetables. Weigh the produce if you want the closest match to the nutrition estimates below; cup measurements can vary with the size of the pieces.

How do you make a celery mango smoothie?

Add the water to a blender, followed by the chopped celery and diced mango.
Blend until the mixture is smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed.
Check the texture and blend again if any celery pieces remain.
Divide between 2 glasses and serve immediately.

The smoothie does not need to steep. If it is thicker than you like, blend in a little more water; if it separates after standing, stir or shake it before drinking. Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container and drink within 24 hours for best quality.

Why is it called a detox smoothie?

A celery mango smoothie can help you hydrate, but it does not cleanse your blood or flush toxins from your body. The liver and kidneys do most of the body's detoxification, while the lungs and gut also help eliminate waste. Adequate hydration supports normal body function, including the work of the kidneys.

Because the fruit and celery are blended rather than strained, the drink retains their fiber. Dietary fiber supports normal digestion, although this recipe is not a treatment for digestive problems. Research has not established that this particular smoothie has a special detoxifying effect.

Celery contains vitamin K. If you take warfarin, keep your vitamin K intake consistent and ask your healthcare professional about dietary changes. Avoid either ingredient if you have a known allergy to it.

What swaps and variations can you try?

Use frozen mango

Replace the fresh mango with 165 g (about 1 cup) of unsweetened frozen mango. It makes the drink colder and thicker without adding ice. Let the pieces soften slightly if your blender struggles with frozen fruit.

Adjust the texture

For a colder drink, blend in approximately 70 g (1/2 cup) of ice. For a thinner drink, add water a little at a time. Keep the mixture unstrained if you want to retain the fiber from the produce.

Change the flavor balance

If the celery tastes too strong, reduce its amount next time and keep the mango the same. For a less sweet drink, reduce the mango instead. Either adjustment changes the nutrition per serving, so the estimates below will no longer apply exactly.

What is the nutrition per serving?

The following estimates are for one of the 2 servings, using 100 g of raw celery, 165 g of raw mango and water for the full recipe. They are calculated from USDA ingredient data, not from a laboratory analysis of the finished smoothie. Actual values vary with the fruit and the amounts used.

Nutrient	Approximate amount per serving
Calories	57 kcal
Carbohydrates	13.9 g
Fiber	2.1 g
Sugars	12.0 g
Protein	1.0 g
Fat	0.4 g
Vitamin C	31.6 mg
Potassium	269 mg
Sodium	41 mg

The sugars are naturally present in the celery and mango; the base recipe contains no added sugar. With about 1.0 g of protein per serving, this smoothie is relatively low in protein on its own.
