The blender has been my favourite kitchen appliance over summer. Blending ice with seasonal fruit and citrus juice has made drinking summer cocktails easy not to mention not wasting overripe fruit. Sweet and brimming with mango flavour this colourful drink. Similar to the strawberry daiquiri this boozy refresher is less like a slushie and more like a thick smoothie.
