Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 teaspoon honey (natural)
- 1/2 cup club soda
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
- Thin lime wheel for garnish
Optional
- 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent dissolved in warm water (optional, for thicker texture)
Instructions
- Prepare the Mango Base: Peel and dice the fresh ripe mango, then blend it until smooth to create a thick, vibrant mango puree that forms the flavorful base of the mocktail.
- Add Citrus and Sweetener: Mix the fresh lime juice and orange juice into the mango puree, then stir in honey gradually to balance the sweetness with a bright citrus tang.
- Incorporate Natural Gelling Agent (Optional): If a thicker texture is desired, dissolve the natural gelling agent in a small amount of warm water and stir it into the mango mixture for added smoothness.
- Chill and Sparkle: Refrigerate the mango mixture for about 30 minutes to chill it well. Pour into glasses and top each with club soda to add a lively sparkling finish.
- Garnish and Serve: Add fresh mint leaves on top and place a thin lime wheel on the rim of each glass to enhance appearance, aroma, and freshness.
Notes
- Use fully ripe, fragrant mangoes for maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Adjust honey gradually to avoid overly sweet results and keep the drink refreshing.
- Prepare the mango base a day ahead to deepen flavors and save serving time.
- Chill all ingredients beforehand to maintain an icy cold mocktail without diluting the taste.
- Experiment with different sparkling waters or natural lemon-lime soda for variety.
