What’s cooking in your kitchen?
Make hay while the sun shines! As the mangoes are nearing the end of the season, it’s time to make the most out of it. I step out to buy something but always end up buying mangoes too. They are hard to resist! Less in calories, loaded with vitamins — who would want to miss?
We have a myriad of mango varieties to pick from, and here, I’ve chosen Banganapalle as they’re sweeter and inexpensive in my place. You can use whichever variety you get your hands on. This recipe is one of the ultimate summer refreshers you would ever slurp. I didn’t know that mangoes marry well with lemons and taste insanely delicious until I tried this. So, do yourself a favor and make this yummy drink today.
