Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh mangoes (peeled and diced)
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced)
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 4 cups Shaved ice
Instructions
1. Prepare the mango syrup: In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Blend until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let it cool completely, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp. Set aside.
2. Prepare the strawberry syrup: In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Blend until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let it cool completely, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp. Set aside.
3. Shave the ice using a snow cone maker or crush ice in a blender until fine and fluffy. Scoop the shaved ice into serving cones or bowls, packing lightly.
4. To serve, drizzle the mango syrup and strawberry syrup generously over the shaved ice. Adjust the amount of each syrup to taste.
5. Optionally, garnish with fresh mango slices, strawberry halves, or a sprig of mint for added presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy!
