Sue’s Tips

If you’re planning ahead, it helps if the mangoes have been chilled in the refrigerator for an hour or two before making the slushies. You can prepare the mango and chop it up, put in a sealed container, and pop in the fridge to chill.
Rum it up for adults, if you’d like, by adding 2 ounces of rum to the blender.
This recipe can be doubled, if the size of your blender allows.
