This all fruit smoothie recipe was originally shared with us years ago from the book Becoming Raw: The Essential Guide to Raw Vegan Diets. I stumbled across it again recently and simply had to whip it up. It takes just minutes and tastes like a fresh sip from a smoothie bar. But unlike most of those pricey drinks, this one doesn’t have any added sugars!
Ingredient Notes: Pink Cadillac All Fruit Smoothie
When a recipe contains very few ingredients, the quality of those ingredients counts. Here are my personal tips for creating the best all fruit smoothie.
Orange Juice – Nothing compares to the taste of fresh-squeezed, and pure orange juice has natural bone health benefits! But if squeezing oranges doesn’t fit in your schedule, you can use store-bought orange juice. However, I recommend purchasing “not from concentrate” juice. If desired, you can pick an orange juice that is fortified with calcium.
Mango – Not all mangoes are created alike! Some are very fibrous and can result in disappointing smoothies. Be sure to pick a variety with no fibers, like Honey Mangoes. The Mango Board has a great guide to mangoes that I reference on occasion.
Strawberries – Sweet strawberries will make a huge difference in this all fruit smoothie recipe. If your strawberries aren’t quite at their peak, add 1 to 2 drops of pure stevia extract to brighten the flavors.

Sounds delicious Alisa! My kids all prefer fruit and OJ smoothies and they’d love this one (myself included)
This sounds super refreshing, especially for summer! Perfect snack for the hot weather!
Looks like a great zingy smoothie to use to wake-up!
Hi Alisa, great post (as always!) Just thought I’d let you know I tweaked this slightly as I’m not a huge strawberry fan. So I only used mango and orange juice and it was still amazing! Perfect on a sunny day and it’s starting to warm up here in the UK. Thanks again!
That’s so great Paul and happy that this inspired you! Enjoy the sunshine 🙂
