Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (about 300g) ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
- 1 ½ cups (360ml) fresh coconut water
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or agave syrup (optional)
- 1 cup (150g) ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Peel and chop ripe mangoes into chunks (about 2 cups or 300g). If mango is firm, let sit at room temperature to soften.
- Roll 2 medium limes on the counter, cut in half, and juice until you have about 2 tablespoons (30ml). Strain to remove seeds and pulp if desired.
- In a blender, combine mango chunks, 1 ½ cups (360ml) fresh coconut water, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Add 1-2 teaspoons honey or agave syrup if mangoes aren’t very sweet.
- Blend on high for about 45 seconds until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Add about 1 cup (150g) ice cubes and pulse a few times to lightly crush the ice, chilling the drink without watering it down.
- Taste and adjust by adding more lime juice for tang or honey for sweetness if desired. Blend briefly again if additions are made.
- Pour into tall glasses, garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
If you don’t have a blender, mash mango with a fork and whisk with coconut water and lime juice for a chunkier texture. Add ice just before serving to avoid dilution. Use fresh lime juice for best flavor. Adjust sweetness with honey or agave syrup as needed.
