About Mango Juice
I used to love Mango Juice from Pazhamudhir Nilayam a local vegetable fruit vendor shop but until I started making homemade fresh Mango Juice. Mangoes are in season so make best use of it by making fresh and juicy mango juice.
Mangoes tend to be sometimes not taste sweet when consumed as it is. So in such situations Mango Milkshake and Mango Juice will be my first choice. You can make Mango Lassi. Check out Mango Frooti here.
Why Homemade Mango Juice?
Homemade Mango Juice is best as it is juicy, sweet and without added preservatives. In shops they make mango juice and store it for a week atleast with loaded sugar and preservatives, so they don’t taste fresh. But Homemade Mango Juice is always prepared fresh and tastes best when consumed fresh. Also you have the liberty to adjust the consistency of mango juice, also choose the variety of mangoes as per your preference for making Mango Juice.
Though Alphonso Mangoes tastes best for Mango Juice however you can use Banganapalli or even Neelam mangoes as per your liking.
Mango Juice 2 Ways
- Mango Juice (Classic Version) – The Classic Mango Juice uses just mangoesm, sugar and water without any other additions with just the purest taste of mangoes with little sugar. I used alphoso mangoes for this.
- Mango Juice (With Sabja Seeds) – This version tastes the same as the Classic Mango Juice with the addition of sabja seeds. Sabja Seeds has no taste by itself but gives the juice a texture. Sabja Seeds are great as a natural body coolant so helps to maintain a balance while adding to Mango Juice. I used banganapalli mangoes for this.

Mangoes – How to Store?

- Cut mangoes into cubes, transfer to a clean zip loack bag or a dry container and freeze it. This can be stored and used for around 6 months.
