Mango Lemonade Sparkler (Print-Friendly Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 960 ml flat or fizzy water, whatever suits you
02 - 240 ml plain water
03 - 80 ml squeezed lemon juice
04 - 150 g caster sugar
05 - 390 g canned or homemade mango puree

# Step-by-Step Directions:

01 - Set the syrup aside so it can cool completely before you go on. No need to hurry—take your time with the next steps.
02 - In a medium pot, toss in 240 ml water with 150 g sugar. Warm on medium and keep stirring. Once the sugar melts and the mixture gets bubbly, remove from the burner.
03 - In a large jug, add 390 g mango puree and 80 ml lemon juice. Mix well until it’s fully smooth.
04 - While stirring, slowly tip in the 960 ml of still or sparkling water. Keep mixing until everything's combined nicely.
05 - Tip the syrup into your jug. Stir everything really well. Pour over ice if you want, or refrigerate for an extra chill. If it sits a bit, stir again before serving up.

# Helpful Notes:

01 - Sweet, juicy mangoes work best, but top-quality tinned ones are fine too. Add more or less syrup to match how sweet you like it.
