As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of pink and orange, I found myself reminiscing about a tropical getaway. With the salty breeze in my hair and the scent of ripe mangoes wafting through the air, I knew I had to recreate that blissful moment in my kitchen. And what could be better than a refreshing scoop of frozen yogurt to capture the essence of paradise? Thus, the Exotic Mango Coconut Frozen Yogurt was born—a delightful fusion of creamy yogurt, sweet mango, and a hint of coconut that transports you straight to a beach hammock.
Ingredients
2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)
2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to sweetness preference)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Juice of 1 lime
Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
Start by placing the diced mangoes in a blender. Add the coconut milk, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, lime juice, and a pinch of sea salt.
Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or maple syrup.
Once you have achieved your desired flavor, transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Seal it tightly and place it in the freezer for about 2-3 hours, or until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. If you prefer a firmer texture, leave it in the freezer for an additional hour.
When you’re ready to serve, take the frozen yogurt out of the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Use an ice cream scoop to serve it into bowls or cones, and garnish with a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes or a few fresh mango slices for an extra tropical touch.
With each velvety spoonful, the Exotic Mango Coconut Frozen Yogurt will whisk you away to sun-kissed shores, reminding you that every day can be a little slice of paradise, even if just for a moment. Enjoy the bliss!
