Tropical Mango Freeze


The summer months are the perfect time to enjoy a cold slushy tropical drink like this amazing mango freeze.  This drink is delicious and exotic and you don't need a passport to experience it. All you need is a blender and a few ingredients and you will  be sipping and smiling in no time:-)
This is a perfect drink for everyone to enjoy and starts off as a non-alcoholic mocktail. You can make this a delicious cocktail by adding a hint of rum or your favorite liquor.


Start with Fresh Mango



Ingredients

1-2  Mango
2 cups ice
1/2 cup passion fruit nectar
1/2  cup coco Lopez cream of coconut 
juice of 1 small lime
1/2 cup sparkling water 
1/3 cup sugar
Approximately 4 tablespoons Grenadine Syrup

Peel the Mango and cut the bright orange meat away from the pit. Chop the Mango and measure out 2 cups chopped Mango. Put the chopped Mango, ice, cream of coconut, passion fruit nectar, lime juice and sugar. Blend until smooth.  Add more ice if needed for a thicker slushier consistency.

Put two tablespoons Grenadine syrup in two high ball glasses and pour Mango mixture on top.

The perfect drink for a hot day



Bon Appetit!
