HOW TO SERVE, STORE, AND CUSTOMIZE THIS RECIPE
SERVING
- Serve immediately after blending for the smoothest, creamiest texture
- Pour into a chilled tall tumbler or pint glass to keep the drink cold longer
- For a slightly sweeter drink, add a drizzle of honey or an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream before blending
STORAGE
- This drink is best enjoyed fresh, as the ice will melt and thin the texture over time
- If needed, store leftovers in an airtight jar or container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake or re-blend briefly before serving to restore the creamy consistency.
SUBSTITUTIONS
- If no mango juice is available, substitute mango juice concentrate mixed with water
- Swap whole milk for half and half or 2% milk to adjust richness
- Frozen strawberries can be used in place of fresh fruit for a thicker, frostier strawberry mango drink
Ingredients:
- 1 cup mango juice
- 4 large strawberries, stems removed
- ¼ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup vanilla ice cream (approximately one rounded scoop)
