# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Five minutes is all it takes, which means no excuse to skip breakfast even on chaotic mornings.
- The tartness of raspberries and the sunny sweetness of mango together taste like a vacation you did not know you needed.
02 -
- Frozen fruit is truly nonnegotiable here because fresh fruit turns this into a watery mess instead of a luscious treat.
- Start with less milk than you think you need because you can always add more, but you cannot thicken it back up easily.
03 -
- Freeze your overripe mango chunks in a single layer on a baking sheet before bagging them so they never clump into an unblendable boulder.
- A pinch of salt may sound odd but it magnifies the sweetness of the fruit without adding any sugar at all.
