Homemade Blender Mango Juice Recipe (1-Ingredient)
Here’s a delicious Mango Juice recipe made in a blender. Mango juice is a naturally sweet fruit juice that is full of vitamin C and antioxidants. Make this homemade fruit juice with just one ingredient.
What better way to celebrate mango season or warm weather than by enjoying a homemade glass of mango juice?
Mangos are particularly great for making into juice because they are a rich source of soluble fiber. This means that they have a natural thickness to them and lots of vitamin C and health benefits.
Pure mango juice made from ripe mangos is almost like drinking a smoothie. You’ll get a lot of fiber plus so many essential nutrients. Skip the bottled mango nectar that often has added sugar and make your own with no added sugar or artificial flavors.
Mango Juice Benefits
- This easy recipe has just one ingredient! That’s it. Make some mango puree and add water and you have a refreshing glass of juice. You don’t even need any added sugar, simple sugar, or added sweeteners for this Mango Juice recipe.
- Mangoes offer lots of vitamins and homemade juice is the perfect way to consume fresh fruit on hot summer days. Some people call them the “king of fruits.”
- Making this homemade mango juice is also a great way to preserve fresh mangos during mango season. You can easily freeze the juice into ice cube trays to create mango ice cubes. Add them to smoothies through the year.
Ingredients
- Mangoes contain magnesium and potassium. They bring a great tropical experience to a glass. You can use any type of ripe mango to make juice including Alphonso mangoes, honey mango, or any variety of mango. Look for ripe mangoes in the produce section of your local grocery store. Their bright color indicates that they are rich in beta carotene which is great for the immune system.
- You’ll also need some water to help blend the fruit and to dilute it a bit. I recommend using filtered cold water if your tap water has any chlorine flavor to it. Filtered water will remove any chlorine taste. Or, you could use coconut water to make this a great natural electrolyte drink for hot days.
Recipe Steps
Step One
Peel and cut the mango into evenly sized chunks or small pieces.
Please see the recipe card at the end of this post for the exact ingredients and measurements.
Step Two
Add mango and water to the jar of a high powered blender.
Step Three
Process until smooth. Feel free to add more water if you want a thinner juice.
Step Four
Strain the mango pulp through a sieve or nut milk bag.
Serve the fresh mango juice immediately or chill for the optimal sweetness and best taste.
This recipe and method is very similar to the one I have for Papaya Juice.
Recipe Tips
- You can easily double or triple this recipe for more servings.
- Fresh juice is best served right after it’s made. But, it can be stored in a covered airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Feel free to add other ingredients to your juice including up to 1-inch of fresh ginger, or a squeeze of lemon juice or lime juice. You can also use pineapple juice, coconut juice, or orange juice instead of water. See this variation: Carrot and Mango Juice.
- If you want a thinner juice, add an additional 1 cup of liquid before blending. Want a thicker juice or puree? Don’t strain the juice or add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds to the blender.
Mango Juice FAQs
A juicer is not ideal because mangos are a very soft fruit. If you want to use a juicer, you’ll need to juice the mango with other ingredients that are hard in texture, such as carrots or apple. This will help push the mango slices through the juicer. That said, a blender or food processor is much preferred for making mango juice.
It is very similar! True mango puree does not have any of the fiber strained out. If you want mango puree, then just don’t strain the mixture once you blend it to retain more of the fiber.
Yes! Making mango juice and freezing it in an ice cube tray is an ideal way to freeze fresh mangoes. The frozen mango cubes will keep in the freezer in an airtight bag up to several months. Use them to make a mango smoothie.
No, it’s best to use ripe fruit to make sure it has enough natural flavor and sweetness.
Yes, but ideally you would defrost the bag of mango chunks in the refrigerator overnight (or at least 8 hours) before blending it. Otherwise, the blended mixture will be frozen like a smoothie.
