Helpful Tips and Variations:

• If fresh mangoes are not available, you can use frozen mangoes. Just make sure to thaw them before blending.
• For a natural sweetener, replace honey with agave syrup or leave out the sweetener altogether if the mangoes are sweet enough.
• Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment on a hot day.

Storage and Substitutions:

• Refrigerate any leftover drink in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving.
• If lime juice is unavailable, lemon juice can be used as a substitute for a slightly different citrus flavor.

Pairings and Complements:

This Mango Mint Infusion pairs beautifully with a variety of light snacks and desserts. Enjoy it with a fresh fruit salad, light vegetable skewers, or even some homemade cookies for a delightful afternoon treat.
