Mango Mint Slush

The mango belongs to the drupe family.  There are many different kinds of mangoes.  They vary in colour,  shape, flavor and seed size.  Mango has a sweet and creamy taste.  It has as more as 20 vitamins and minerals.  Mango has been named as the most consumed fruit in the world. 

Mango ccontains vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B6 and vitamin K.  Apart from that it has copper, calcium, iron and antioxidants. 

Slush means a partially melted or frozen flavoured  beverage.  It is a non carbonated drink and very Good for this summer.

Here is my recipe of mango Slush.  A partially melted drink with mango and mint flavour.  Little ice particles melts in mouth which gives relief in summer.  It is a simple and easy recipe with a very few ingredients. 

Ripe mango- 1 Big (preferably banganpalli) 

Mint leaves- 6 to 7 

Ice cubes -  2 cups (more can be added)

Honey- 4 tbsp ( depends on the sweetness of mango and one's taste bud). 

Peel and deseed the mango and cut into cubes.  Take 1cup of this mango cubes. 

In a blender jar add mango,  ice cubes,  mint leaves and honey.  Don't need to add any water.  Give it a proper blend up to the ice and mango mix properly.  It will be a thick drink due to ice particles.  It should be served immediately.  All the fun of this drink will vanish if the ice starts to melt
