Ingredients

about 24 juicy clementines, plus an extra one for decoration
2 small, very ripe and juicy mangoes
2 ripe bananas
500g tub whole milk or low-fat yogurt
handful of ice cubes (optional)

Method

Halve clementines and squeeze out the juice – you should have about 600ml/1 pint. (This can be done the night before.) Peel mangoes, slice fruit away from the stone in the centre, then chop the flesh into rough pieces. Peel and slice the bananas.
Put the clementine juice, mango flesh, bananas, yogurt and ice cubes into a liquidiser and blend until smooth. Pour into six glasses and serve. (You might need to make this in two batches, depending on the size of your liquidiser.) If you don’t add ice cubes, chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
