How long is this good for:
- Serve: You’ll need to refrigerate this mango smoothie within 30-60 minutes of making it before you have a soupy mess on your hands.
- Store: You can store leftover smoothie for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. I just keep it in the blender canister. You don’t want it to sit for longer than that because the spinach will darken and start to discolor.
- Freeze: You can freeze individual smoothie servings in Ziploc bags. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and you’ll have smoothies ready in the morning. Sometimes I have to put the smoothie back in the blender to break up any lingering frozen chunks.
