Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe mangoes
- 0.5 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 4 cups water
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 4 slices mango slices (optional, for garnish)
- 4 slices lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
- 8 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh away from the pit. Place the mango flesh in a blender.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice, granulated sugar, and 2 cups of water to the blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is fully dissolved.
Strain the blended mango mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove any mango fibers.
Add the remaining 2 cups of water to the pitcher and stir to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if desired.
Chill the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or serve immediately by pouring the mango lemonade over ice cubes in individual glasses.
Garnish each glass with a slice of mango, a slice of lemon, and a mint leaf if desired. Serve and enjoy!
