Mango Fandango

We are right in the middle of Summer here in Australia. Cravings for cold drinks, smoothies, ice cream and icy poles are on peak at this time of the year for us.

I share with you a simple and yummy recipe today that sure satisfies in hot weather. It is full of fruit, you can make it healthier by using yoghurt or if you are in the mood for something more indulgent, go for thickened cream.

You can also adjust the consistency according to personal preference, we enjoy it thick in consistency.

Mango Fandago, is a name that is associated with a mango drink that has seen quite a few variations and today I present to you my take on it. The Almond butter, cinnamon and vanilla as a combination add so much flavour.

Ingredients

Mango – 1 cup diced

Banana – 1, diced

Thickened Cream or yoghurt – 1/2 cup

Almond Butter – 1 heaped Tablespoon

Cinnamon – 1/4 teaspoon

Vanilla Essence – 1 teaspoon

Honey – 1/4 cup

Ice

Milk to adjust for consistency

Method

Place all ingredients in a blender or Nutri bullet and blend till smooth in consistency. Enjoy as is or can freeze in an icetray and once frozen can take it out, place it back in the blender and give it whirl and it will have a thick ice cream like feel to it but definitely healthier.

Enjoy!!!!
