Homemade Mango Nectar

We’re headed to Summer here in the U.S., and although I might whine and grumble and whine some more about the hot weather, I do look forward to the abundance of fresh produce that comes with the season. Just the sweet aroma of juicy Manila mangoes alone is worth the sordid heat in my book.

Not only are fruits plentiful during warmer months, but they are also relatively inexpensive. I was able to score, to my delight, a case of about a dozen pieces of Manila mangoes for less than $10 at Seafood City last weekend and I’ve been having a blast these past few days turning them into all sorts of yummy, summery treats.

What is a Mango Nectar

Mango pulp is a tropical beverage flavored with mango pulp and sweetened with simple syrup. Crisp and refreshing with a sweet and tangy taste, it’s the perfect thirst quencher.

How to Make Mango Nectar

Unlike commercial brands with a long list of additives and preservatives you can hardly pronounce, this homemade mango juice nectar has only three all-natural ingredients: fresh mango pulp, water, and sugar. You can make your own batch in three easy steps!

    1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and water. Bring to a simmer, stirring regularly, until sugar is dissolved and syrup is clear and no longer cloudy. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
    2. Slice the mangoes and scoop the flesh, discarding the pit and skin. In a blender or food processor, process the mango flesh into a smooth pulp.
    3. In a pitcher, combine the mango puree and simple syrup. Stir until well combined and refrigerate to chill.

When the juice is nicely chilled, pour in serving glasses over ice and enjoy!

      Yes, you can’t beat the taste and sweetness of Philippine mangoes. The mangoes here look the same but not as delicious 🙁
