Ingredient costs and assumptions
Quantities without exact weights use the nutrition library’s portion estimates. Purchase yields are estimates. Separate citrus ingredients are costed independently; reusing the same fruit for juice and zest can lower your cost. Labor, utilities, and delivery are excluded.

1 cup = 240 g; Owner label defines one cup as 240 mL. For mass-based storage only, estimate 1 g/mL and 240 g per labeled cup. These are not measured package weights; the paired per-100-g normalization cancels this assumption for the authored cup serving.

I use Ocean Spray Original Cranberry Juice Cocktail and unsweetened frozen acai here. The juice already brings sweetness, while the acai and raspberries keep the blend from tasting like straight fruit juice. Mango and vanilla protein round it out. There is no need to add another sweetener before tasting the finished smoothie.
For morning prep, portion the mango, acai, and raspberries together in the freezer. If the acai comes in packets, measure the listed amount rather than assuming one packet is the serving in the recipe. Keep the juice and protein powder separate until blending, add the liquid first, and use the listed ice as your starting point. A little extra liquid is easier to add than to take back out.
This is a useful option in the berry smoothie collection when you want something with more tang than a milk-based shake. Blend it fresh from the prepared fruit portion, then adjust consistency to suit your blender. For variety using the same powder, look through the vanilla protein smoothies. Keep the acai unsweetened if you want to reproduce this version. A different juice or sweetened acai will change the balance, so those are ingredient swaps rather than identical replacements.
