Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups frozen mango chunks (about 10 oz or 280g)
- 1 1/2 cups frozen strawberries (about 8 oz or 225g)
- Juice of 2 large lemons (about 1/2 cup or 120ml)
- 1 1/2 cups cold water (360ml)
- 2–4 tablespoons sweetener of choice (honey, agave, maple syrup, simple syrup, or sugar, to taste)
- 1 cup ice cubes (optional, about 130g)
- Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients. If fruit is very hard, let it sit for 5 minutes to soften slightly.
- Roll lemons on the counter, cut in half, and juice into a bowl or measuring cup. Remove any seeds.
- Add frozen mango, frozen strawberries, lemon juice, cold water, and 2 tablespoons sweetener to a blender. Add ice cubes if desired for extra frostiness.
- Blend on low, then increase to high speed for 60–90 seconds until smooth and slushy. If needed, stop to stir or add a splash more water.
- Taste and adjust: add more sweetener if too tart, more water if too thick, or more lemon juice for extra tang.
- Pour into tall glasses. Garnish with fresh mint or lemon slices if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
For best texture, use frozen fruit. Adjust sweetness and tartness to taste. For a grown-up version, add a splash of vodka or rum. To prep ahead, blend and freeze, then thaw and stir before serving. Garnish with mint or lemon slices for a festive touch. If using fresh fruit, freeze it first or add extra ice.
