Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh ripe mango, peeled and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup (natural) or agave nectar (natural), adjust to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 1 cup cold sparkling water
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mango Purée: Peel and chop fresh ripe mango into small pieces. Blend the mango chunks in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps. This purée forms the base of the mocktail.
  2. Add Zesty Lime and Sweetener: Squeeze fresh lime juice directly into the mango purée, then add your natural sweetener such as maple syrup (natural) or agave nectar (natural). Blend briefly to mix well and to balance the flavors, adjusting sweetness or acidity as desired.
  3. Incorporate the Natural Gelling Agent: Dissolve the natural gelling agent in a small amount of warm water, then stir it into the mango-lime mixture. Refrigerate for a short time to allow the texture to set lightly, creating a soft, jelly-like consistency.
  4. Combine with Sparkling Water and Ice: Just before serving, fill glasses halfway with ice cubes. Pour the mango mixture over the ice, then top off each glass with cold sparkling water. Stir gently to combine flavors and maintain the refreshing fizz.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Add a sprig of fresh mint or a thin wedge of lime on the rim of each glass for an inviting finish. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing Tropical Mango Mocktail.

Notes

  • Use ripe mangoes for the sweetest and most fragrant flavor.
  • Always use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best brightness and tang.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually to avoid oversweetening.
  • Chill mango purée and sparkling water beforehand for optimal refreshment.
  • The natural gelling agent is optional and can be omitted for a smooth texture.
