Why You’ll Love Mango Frozen Yogurt

This Mango Frozen Yogurt is absolute perfection. It’s refreshing and bright and the mango+lime combo is deliciously sweet and tangy, with a hint of the tropics 🌴. This recipe comes together in just 5 minutes if using frozen mango, and you can easily scale it up so you always have some in the freezer. You could even add the mixture to popsicle molds for the kids, OR add a splash of 🍹 tequila for the adults. In short, it’s the perfect summer refresher 😎.

Ingredients

🥭 Mangoes: I use ripe, juicy mangoes for the best flavor and natural sweetness. The riper they are, the creamier your frozen yogurt will be.

🍯 Agave nectar: Adds just the right touch of sweetness without overpowering the mango. You can adjust to taste or swap for honey if you prefer.

🤍 Plain yogurt: I use plain yogurt here, but Greek yogurt will also work. Greek gives a thicker, tangier vibe, while regular yogurt keeps it light and refreshing.

🟢 Lime juice and zest: Fresh squeezed lime juice brightens the mango flavor and balances the sweetness. Garnish with a sprinkle of lime zest to add a pop of color and a subtle citrus aroma.
