How's the weather at your places ?? Though its summer in most parts of the world,but at some places the heat is very high.Recently had read in news about summers in Kuwait.The outside temperature is so high that 'bullseye eggs' can be prepared on the tar roads in the afternoons.That's the perfect time to sip a chilled lemonade to feel fresh and energetic.Lemonade with any fruit is flavorful and refreshing but this is the one which kids love a lot because of mangoes.Lemon and mangoes together yield a very comfort drink for summers to beat the heat.Am an adamant fan of mangoes and so you can imagine my attachment to this very drink.Do give this a try & enjoy making your own lemonade flavors !!

* You can refrigerate the left over syrup and use whenever making juices.Adds a great flavor than just adding sugar.
* You can double or triple these ingredients to make a larger batch always.

Refreshing drink . Nice clicks
Hi Julie, here at my place is hot but I'm lucky because by the beach is a bit windy and less hotter than in the city.
Your mango lemonade is very original and I'm sure I like it if I prepare it. Love mango and I remember the first time I tasted mango lassy in India, more than 20 years ago.
I'll give this lemonade a try, but thinking about how to substitute sugar.
Cheers from Valencia
