Mango Juice Recipe


 Although I’ve been a big fan of mango juice for many years, I more than often prefer to make it specifically with organic alphonso mangoes. Hands-down these are the most prized variation of the fruit: they’re large with lots of delicious, perfectly sweet flesh.

While you can make a refreshing glass of mango juice with other mangoes, if you have alphonso available I highly recommend that you use them.

Mangoes are nutrient rich, so obviously it is good to include them in your diet. They are also a rich source of Vitamin A, C and dietary fibre. 

Here I share with you my easy mango juice recipe and tips to prepare the best, most refreshing mango juice from scratch. It’s great to make on a hot day, and perfect to enjoy as it is or with your favorite snacks!

Storing mangoes, the right way

Now that you’ve got a good quantity of mangoes from the market to make your Mango Juice at home, you must be wondering as to what is the best way to store the remaining excess mangoes.

And why not, because the ‘king of fruits’ is a precious one and should be carefully preserved, so that you can enjoy it later too.

Here’s a checklist that you should read and refer to, carefully.

When you want to store fresh mangoes for a short period

  1. Begin by checking the ripeness of the mangoes. Ripe ones are softer as compared to the unripe, harder ones. Ripe mangoes also have a fruity smell which is missing in the unripe ones.
  2. Green, unripe mangoes can be stored in dark at room temperature, in a container/jar with air flow. This will guard the mangoes from insects and not block the oxygen too.
  3. Yellow, ripe mangoes can be stored in the refrigerator for about a week.

When you want to store fresh mangoes for a long period

  1. You can freeze chopped fresh mangoes in ziploc bags to enjoy in the off-season. The mango should be chopped into small pieces to fit properly in the ziploc bags. Peeling the skin is optional.
  2. While packing in ziploc bags, ensure that the mango pieces are not on top of one other. Also, before sealing the bags, push out as much oxygen as possible from them.
  3. You should keep your ziploc bags with mango horizontally in the freezer, for the fruit to freeze evenly.
  4. You can also make puree from the mangoes. Freeze them in ice trays. Then remove the frozen cubes and transfer them to container or ziploc bags. Keep in the freezer. When you want to enjoy any mango based drink or dessert, remove the frozen mango cubes and add them while making the recipe. You can thaw them slightly before you proceed.
  5. It is advisable to consume the frozen mangoes within 6 months of storing in the freezer.
