HOW TO MAKE MANGO JUICE

Ingredients:

• 2-3 ripe mangoes
• 1-2 tablespoons sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
• 1 cup water or chilled water (adjust based on desired consistency)
• Ice cubes (optional)
• A pinch of salt (optional, to enhance flavor)
• Lime or lemon juice (optional, for added tanginess)

Equipment:

• Blender or mixer
• Knife
• Cutting board
• Strainer (optional, if you prefer a smoother juice)
• Pitcher or jug

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mangoes:

   • Wash the mangoes thoroughly under running water.
   • Peel the mangoes using a knife or peeler.
   • Cut the mango flesh away from the pit. You can do this by slicing the mango vertically along each side of the pit and then cutting the flesh into smaller chunks.

2. Blend the Mango:

   • Place the mango chunks in a blender.
   • Add 1 cup of water to the blender. If you prefer a thicker juice, add less water; for a thinner consistency, add more water.
   • Add sugar if you like your juice sweeter, and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.

Optionally, add a squeeze of lime or lemon juice for extra tanginess.

1. Blend Until Smooth:

   • Blend the mixture until smooth. If you prefer your juice without any pulp, you can strain it using a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a pitcher or jug.

2. Serve:

   • Pour the mango juice into glasses.
   • Add ice cubes if desired to make it chilled and refreshing.
   • Garnish with a slice of lime or a mint leaf if you like.

3. Enjoy:

   • Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh taste.

Tips:

• Choose ripe and sweet mangoes for the best flavor. The ripeness of the mango will greatly affect the taste of your juice.
• You can adjust the sweetness and thickness of the juice according to your preference by varying the amount of sugar and water.
• For an extra twist, you can add other fruits like oranges or pineapples to the blender for a mixed fruit juice.
