Tips for mango milkshake

To make mango milkshake choose ripe, sweet mangoes. That way you will not need to add any sugar or may need to add only a little sugar. I usually do not add any sugar.
You may use store bought or homemade mango pulp or preserved mangoes to make this milkshake.
Sugar quantity will depend on the sweetness of mango, freshness and sweetness of the flavored milk if you are adding it. And also on your sweet tooth.
Add more milk if you like slightly thinner milkshake.
Add a pinch of cinnamon powder while blending if you like the flavor.
Top with vanilla or mango ice cream or a few pieces of mango.
Instead of sugar, you may add any other sweetener such as bee's honey, date syrup, maple syrup etc. according to taste.
You may add a scoop of ice cream while blending too. Tastes great and gives good consistency.
