Servings: 1 Shake
Equipment
- Sauce Pan
- 12 oz glass
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Water
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 1 Cup Fresh Diced Green Mango
- 2 Cups Crushed Ice
Instructions
- First let's make the sugar water syrup. This need to be cooled down for at least 15 minutes in the freezer or made a few hours or days ahead and cooled in the refrigerator .
- Combine 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 cup of water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil on high heat and then turn it down and leave to simmer for 15 minutes. The water should be a touch tinted brown and reduced slightly. So it will be a little less than a cup now.
- Dice 1 cup of green mango.
- Put the 1 cup of green mango, 1 cup(ish) water syrup and 2 cups of ice in the blender. Blend until smooth .
- Pour in glass and drink right away.
Notes
Does it really have to be a green mango? I know it's really hard to get so you can get away with a regular mango that is not ripe yet. Just feel it to make sure your mango is super firm. That is usually a sign that it's still sour. So you can use that instead of hunting around for green mango.
