Mango Lemonade - How to make Mango Lemonade

 I bought a basket of mango keeping in mind to prepare 2 -3 recipes. After being done with mango panna cotta  i reserved few mango pulp for mango lemonade. The punch of lemon and sweetness of  mangoes
together is a great combination to please.  It was such a refreshing drink for the rising temperature here.

 Unlike most of the lemonade recipes, this recipe calls for the preparation of sugar syrup first and then mango pulp is added, which i noted from sharmis blog. This helps it to keep well for more days. You can mix with cold water as needed.
