Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (about 10.5 oz or 300 grams) frozen mango chunks, unsweetened
- Juice of 2 large lemons (about 1/3 cup or 80 ml)
- 1 cup (8 fl oz or 240 ml) cold water
- 1 cup (about 5 oz or 140 grams) ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons (1 fl oz or 30 ml) honey or agave syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Roll the lemons on the counter with your palm to loosen the juice, then cut them in half and juice until you have about 1/3 cup (80 ml). Remove any seeds.
- Add frozen mango chunks, freshly squeezed lemon juice, cold water, ice cubes, honey or agave syrup, and a pinch of sea salt to a high-speed blender.
- Blend starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high, for about 1 to 2 minutes until you get a thick, slushy consistency. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or agave syrup if too tart. If too thick, add a splash of water and pulse briefly.
- Serve immediately in chilled tall glasses, garnished with a thin lemon slice or fresh mint sprig if desired.
Notes
Do not over-blend to avoid watery texture. Let frozen mango chunks sit out for 5 minutes if too hard. Adjust sweetness gradually. Use a powerful blender for best texture. Variations include adding fresh mint, berries, cayenne pepper, or alcohol.
