How To Make Mango Lemonade?
MANGO LEMONADE- A REFRESHING SUMMERY LEMONADE WITH FRESH MANGOES AND A HINT OF MINT. SUMMER RECIPES.VEGAN
Mango lemonade is probably the best way to indulge in lemonade. There is really nothing better on a hot Summer’s afternoon than a lemonade that is bursting with the flavors of fresh mangoes. I had too many mangoes from my recent visit to Mustafa. After making some delicious mango gelee panacotta and this crazy good mango jalapeno taco sauce, i was left with about 2 cups of chopped Alphonso mangoes. Singapore has been getting hotter over this month and i decided that mango lemonade is going to be one helluva way to beat the heat.
When i made the mango lemonade for the first time, i was really not very impressed. There was something missing. Yes, i was very sure. You see, i have become very particular over the years about my lemonade. And so, i decided to experiment a bit with this version. I thought a nice Indian spicy kick would take my mango lemonade to a different level and i was not wrong. This lemonade calls for very simple ingredients but the key to making fine mango lemonade lies in finding the best mangoes you can lay your hands on. I added a bit of Jaljeera powder to give the lemonade a new flavor but feel free to skip it if you are not a Jaljeera fan.
