In India, it’s next to unbelievable to hear when someone expresses their dislike towards the supposed King of fruits –– the (not-so-humble) mango. Announcing its arrival each summer in the most grand manner, one is sure to see a spread of yellow carts throughout the streets.
But what do you do, when you can’t get your hands on those fresh mangoes? The range of mango snacks and drinks that come out in the summer have you covered. Yes, we know the freshness and juiciness of mangoes stand ahead of the other mango-flavoured snacks, but they sure have their own excitement, don’t they?
We have rounded up a few of these oh-so-yummy snacks for those moments you really (really) crave some mangoes –– but in the most convenient and easy way! After all, some kind of mango is better than no mango.
I. Bono Ice Cream’s Mango Passion Fruit (Mumbai only)
What is a better way to beat the heat than a scoop of ice cream? Bono’s Mango Passion Fruit is a tangy and refreshing treat that one just can’t get enough of. The mango ice cream supremacy reigns on, but Bono mixes it up with hints of passion fruit –– and trust us, you will not get enough of it.
II. Fabindia’s Green Mango Punch Instant Drink
Some of the most vivid memories from summer are those of returning home to freshly prepared Aam Panna sitting in the kitchen. Recreating that very memory is Fabindia’s instant fix to Aam Panna –– with just the addition of water, you have the summer drink ready in seconds! Containing hints of lemon and mint, the drink makes for a perfect refresher or even a little pick-me-up for your dreary summer quarantine days.
