I loved this little sip of the tropics. I made this as a single serving using frozen slices of mango and one tablespoon of coconut water (a lighter alternative to milk with the consistency of apple juice). Added a little extra as my brew was very thick and frosty — more like a sorbet han a smoothie. Like Rita, I found this needed no additional sweetness I did not add the honey. Yummy.

    I tagged this when it didn't have any stars yet but I totally agree with Rita's 5 stars. Hint: if you use frozen fruit this is like mango ice cream!!! I basically halved it, using 1 1/2 frozen bananas and 1 cup mango chunks (had been frozen but defrosted overnight in the fridge). I used low-fat coconut milk- a little extra- and subbed agave nectar for honey. I had to try hard not to eat the whole batch! Tastes almost sinful but it's not at all! Will definetly make again!

    I made this for one. Using frozen banana and frozen mango added the apple juice skipped the ice cubes. No need for the sugar for the ingredients are sweet enough for me. Came out like a nice creamy icy!
