Rinse the sago pearls thoroughly under cold water to remove excess starch.
In a large pot, bring 500 ml of water to a boil. Add the sago pearls and cook for 10-12 minutes or until they become translucent, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the bottom.
Once cooked, drain and rinse the sago in cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside.
Peel and dice the mangoes, setting aside half a mango for garnish.
In a blender, combine the rest of the mango pieces with coconut milk, vanilla protein powder, and honey or maple syrup. Blend until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mango-coconut mixture with the cooked sago pearls. Stir well to combine.
Chill the mango sago in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Serve in bowls, garnished with diced mango, mint leaves, and chopped almonds.
