No sweetener needed. The mango is doing all the flavor work on its own.

method

Pour the coconut milk and water into the blender, add the mango and protein powder.

Taste and adjust: a few more ice cubes for thicker, a splash more liquid for thinner. Drink cold.

chef's tips

Mango is doing all the flavor work here. No sweetener needed.
Use a protein powder with no added sugar. It is the difference between a few grams of carbs per scoop and a lot more.
