Mango Lemonade Recipe

Nothing beats the taste of homemade Mango Lemonade on a hot day. This vibrant drink combines the tropical sweetness of ripe mango puree with the bright, tart zing of freshly-squeezed lemon juice for a perfectly balanced refreshment. After extensive testing, I’ve perfected this recipe to ensure it’s not overly sweet and delivers that authentic, fresh fruit flavor you crave. It’s incredibly simple to make and far superior to any store-bought mix.

Mango Lemonade

  • Author: Dorothy Miller

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 ripe mangoes (or enough to make 1 cup mango pulp)
  • 1 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 cups chilled water
  • ice

Instructions

  1. In a sauce pot, combine sugar and 1 cup water. Over medium heat, bring to a simmer, stirring regularly, until sugar is dissolved and syrup is clear and no longer cloudy. Remove the simple syrup from heat and allow to cool completely.
  2. Slice mangoes and scoop flesh, discarding pit and skin. In a blender or food processor, process mangoes until smooth.
  3. In a pitcher, combine mango pulp, lemon juice, simple syrup and the 2 cups chilled water. Stir well. 
  4. To serve, pour into glasses over ice. Garnish with sliced limes or lemons and fresh mint sprigs, if desired.
