    About Mango Frooti

    This homemade mango-flavored drink is a copycat version of Mango Frooti, a popular beverage sold in India.

    It comes together in under 30 minutes using a few simple ingredients.

    This homemade version is much better than the packaged one as,

    • It is freshly prepared
    • Much more economical
    • Use of high-quality ingredients
    • Free of preservatives and artificial colors
    • Sugar can be controlled

    Sip Frooti mango juice on a hot summer day or serve it for your parties, get-together, or barbecue parties. You can also use it to make mocktails and cocktails.

    This mango frooti recipe is vegan and gluten-free You can easily double or triple it too.

    Ingredients

    Ripe Mangoes – I prefer to use Alphonso mangoes or Kesar mangoes as they are bright orange, sweet, less fibrous, and juicy. You can use any ripe and juicy mango of your choice, but make sure they are bright orange in color, sweet, and less fibrous.

    Raw Mangoes – The addition of raw mangoes adds a slight tanginess to the drink.

    Sugar – You will need white granulated sugar. You can adjust it according to your taste.

    Citric Acid – It gives a nice tang to the drink. If citric acid is not available, you can replace it with lime juice or lemon juice.

    You will also need water and salt.
