Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 4 mangos, sliced
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients – Add the sliced mangos, Greek yogurt, honey, milk, and ground cardamom to your blender. Make sure the mangos are ripe for the best flavor and sweetness. If using frozen mangos, you may need to adjust the milk quantity for desired consistency.
- Blend Until Smooth – Process all ingredients on high speed until completely smooth and no fruit chunks remain, approximately 30-60 seconds. The consistency should be thick but pourable, similar to a smoothie. Pour into glasses and garnish as desired for a beautiful presentation.
Notes
- Garnish with strands of saffron and chopped pistachios for an authentic touch.
- For a thicker consistency, use less milk or add more yogurt.
- If mangos aren’t sweet enough, adjust honey to taste.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute with coconut yogurt and almond milk.
- Best enjoyed cold and fresh, but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving if separation occurs.
- Frozen mango can be stored in the freezer for up to 12 months.
