Delicious recipes of Mango Juice & Mango Milkshake

                                      Mango Juice 

 

                        

Ingredients:

 

2 large ripe mangoes

2 cups of chilled water

2 tablespoons of sugar (optional)

Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions:

 

Select ripe mangoes: Choose mangoes that are fully ripe and fragrant. Look for mangoes with a slight give when gently pressed.

 

Wash and peel the mangoes: Rinse the mangoes under cold water to remove any dirt or residue. Using a knife, carefully cut off the skin of the mangoes.

 

Cut the mangoes: Hold a peeled mango upright and slice down vertically on either side of the seed, resulting in two mango halves. Take each half and score the flesh in a criss-cross pattern, being careful not to cut through the skin. Repeat the process with the remaining mangoes.

 

Extract the mango flesh: Hold a scored mango half and push the skin-side up to invert the flesh. Using a knife or a spoon, carefully separate the mango cubes from the skin. Repeat with the remaining mango halves.

 

Blend the mango cubes: Place the extracted mango cubes into a blender or food processor. If you prefer a sweeter juice, add sugar to taste. Start with a small amount and adjust as needed. Blend the mango cubes until you achieve a smooth puree.

 

Strain the puree (optional): If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can strain the mango puree through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any fibrous bits. This step is optional, as some people enjoy the texture of the mango fibers.

 

Add water and mix: Transfer the mango puree to a pitcher or container. Add chilled water to the puree and mix well until it is thoroughly combined. The amount of water can be adjusted based on your desired thickness and sweetness of the juice.

 

Chill and serve: Place the mango juice in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill. You can also add a few ice cubes to the pitcher to make the juice extra refreshing. Once chilled, pour the mango juice into glasses and serve.

 

Optional variations:

 

You can add a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice to the mango juice for a tangy twist.

For a creamier mango juice, you can substitute some of the water with milk or coconut milk.

You can also add a pinch of ground cardamom or a few mint leaves to enhance the flavor.

Enjoy your homemade mango juice.
