Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the jasmine rice, lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until the water is fully absorbed.
Once the rice is cooked, add the coconut milk, whole milk, and granulated sugar to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice pudding thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and pineapple juice. Mix until fully combined.
Allow the rice pudding to cool slightly, then gently fold in the diced mango pieces.
Spoon the rice pudding into serving bowls and allow it to cool further. You can enjoy it warm or chilled, depending on your preference.
Before serving, garnish with toasted coconut and a sprig of mint, if desired, for a tropical presentation.
