    Mango season calls for all things mango! We love enjoying them as a healthy treat or transforming them into delicious treats like mango chia pudding or mango mug cake.

    What is mango milk? Similar to strawberry milk, a beverage made from milk, strawberry syrup and artificial food colorings, this recipe is made using fresh, ripe mangoes making it much healthier.

    It is similar to a summer smoothie, with sweet ripe mango chunks blended with milk, sugar, cardamom and saffron, but made without any yogurt. Have you tried this pina colada smoothie?

    Although not as popular as mango lassi, this mango milk tastes delicious served on a hot summer day just like this mango lemonade.

    Is it just a milkshake? Not exactly. Unlike a milkshake, this milk doesn't have any ice cream or whipped cream topping and is not frothy in texture.

    Why you'll love this?

    • Made using just 3 main ingredients
    • Super tasty
    • Perfect way to celebrate mango season

    Ingredients

    Scroll down to the recipe card below for full information on ingredients and amounts.

    ingredients needed for making milk with mango
    • Mango - Select a sweet ripe mango like Alphonso, Manila, Keitt, Ataulfo, Haden, Kent or Kesar variety.
    • Milk - You can make your mango milk with whatever milk you have in the fridge, but whole milk makes the richest, tastiest drink. 
    • Sugar - The amount of sugar depends on the sweetness of mango.
    • Saffron - This mango milk ends up a lovely pale yellow but turns into a brilliant golden drink with some saffron. Feel free to skip it.
    • Cardamom - Freshly ground cardamom adds floral fruitiness.

    How to make?

    You can find full printable recipe below, but here is a quick overview of the procedure along with step-by-step photos.

    1 & 2. Cut mango into chunks - Cut a mango on both sides of the middle pit, to get two halves on either side (refer how to cut mango video). Hold one half in the palm of your hand, score the flesh in a criss cross pattern and without cutting through the skin. Spoon the cut cubes away from the skin using a large spoon.

    3. Add cut mango, milk, sugar, ground cardamom and saffron into a blender.

    4. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour over ice!

    Storage instructions

    Luckily this mango milk recipe makes just one serving, so you will not have any leftovers. However, if you have any leftovers then just refrigerate in a sealed jar, for up to 2 days.

    Helpful tips

    • Select sweet, well ripened mangoes for the mango milk recipe.
    • Adjust your sugar based on the sweetness of the mango you are using.
    • To make cardamom powder, grind about 1 tablespoon of green cardamoms in a dry spice grinder, until finely ground and use as needed for the recipe.
    • Double or triple recipe - The recipe can be easily doubled or tripled to serve more.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I use whole cardamom instead of cardamom powder?

    Absolutely! Use one whole cardamom pod instead of the ¼ teaspoon cardamom powder. But, you want to blend the smoothie long enough to make sure the cardamom is well ground. Otherwise, you might end up with tiny pieces of cardamom in the milk. It might also be a good idea to strain the milk when pouring into the glass to remove any unground chunks.

    Can I skip saffron?

    Saffron adds sweet, delicate floral notes that compliments cardamom and mango! It also accentuates the golden color to make a pretty yellow beverage.

    Can I use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a healthier twist?

    White sugar has no flavor of it's own and lets other ingredients shine. Honey or maple syrup, on the other hand will tend to alter the taste.
