A refreshing mango and turmeric lemonade with a twist, perfect for hot days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)

- Ice cubes
- Lemon slices and mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, fresh lemon juice, ground turmeric, and honey or agave syrup. Blend until smooth.
- Strain the mango mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove any pulp, pressing down with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or agave syrup.
- Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

- You can also substitute the mango with pineapple for a tropical twist.
