Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and chopped
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (canned or carton)
- 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 cup club soda or sparkling water
- Ice cubes (optional, for extra thickness)
Garnish
- Coconut flakes (optional)
- Mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the chopped ripe mango, coconut milk, vanilla ice cream, and honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter milkshake. Blend these ingredients until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Add Ice for Thickness: If you desire a thicker, colder milkshake, add a few ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the ice is fully crushed and incorporated.
- Pour the Milkshake: Pour the blended milkshake into glasses, filling each about three-quarters full to leave room for the fizzy float topping.
- Add the Fizzy Float: Gently top each glass with a splash of club soda or sparkling water to create a refreshing, bubbly float effect that enhances the tropical flavor.
- Garnish: Sprinkle coconut flakes and add fresh mint leaves on top as a garnish for added texture, aroma, and visual appeal, making the milkshake look inviting and vibrant.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the mango coconut float milkshake immediately to enjoy the best texture and the refreshing combination of creamy and fizzy elements.
Notes
- Use ripe, sweet mangoes for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup based on your preference and the natural sweetness of your mango.
- If you prefer a vegan version, choose a dairy-free vanilla ice cream alternative.
- Adding ice cubes is optional and a great way to thicken the milkshake without compromising flavor.
- The club soda adds a refreshing fizz but can be omitted if you prefer a traditional milkshake texture.
