Why this works
No cooking, no added sugar. The mango is sweet enough on its own and the lime adds the perfect tang. Drop a cube into sparkling water for instant tropical refreshment, or add to margaritas for extra flavor.
Practical tip: Use ripe but firm mango for the best flavor and texture. If your mango is too soft, it will be very sweet - balance it with extra lime juice. These cubes are perfect for both sweet and savory drinks.
