Method

How to make Mango Juice

  1. Wash mango thoroughly and chill them in the fridge. Peel the skin.
  2. Cut the mango to cubes and add them to a blender. Pour the coconut water or orange juice or water. Add sugar and ice cubes. If using ice cubes, reduce the liquid.
  3. Optional - Put in the other ingredients if using like ginger and mint. Blend until smooth. Pour more liquid if needed to your taste. Serve immediately.
  4. Optional - If using chia seeds or sabja seeds, then rinse them thoroughly in a strainer. Soak in ½ cup water and set aside for at least 20 mins to 2 hours. Stir them in the juice just before serving. Serve mango juice immediately.

Mango Juice from Frozen puree

  1. Blend fresh mangoes until smooth in a blender. Strain the puree to remove any bits of fiber left. Transfer this to a ice tray and freeze. Once frozen remove to a ziplock bag and freeze upto an year.
  2. To make mango juice, add 4 to 5 mango cubes (30 ml each) to a serving glass. Add 1 to 2 tbsps of simple syurp or sugar and top with water or coconut water.
  3. If your mango is too sweet, stir in little lemon juice. Sweet and tart juice tastes best. Stir and serve your mango juice. For more flavor add more mango cubes.
