Chili-Lime Mango Refresher - Vegan recipe hero image

I remember the first time I made this Chili-Lime Mango Refresher on a hot summer afternoon.

The vibrant colors and refreshing flavors brought a smile to my face, and every sip felt like a mini-vacation.

I love how the tangy lime and spicy chili complement the sweet mango, making it a unique drink that always impresses my friends.

Plus, it’s so easy to whip up – you’ll wonder why you didn’t try it sooner!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

I love using really ripe mangoes for this drink because they’re sweeter and blend up beautifully. If you can’t find fresh mangoes, frozen mango chunks work just as well – just let them thaw a bit before blending. For a spicier kick, you can even add a pinch of cayenne pepper!

Tips & Notes

  • I keep mine in a glass pitcher in the fridge – it looks pretty and stays fresh for days!
  • If you want to make it a bit fancier, you could blend in some coconut water for an extra tropical twist.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I’ll add a handful of spinach to sneak in some greens – you won’t even taste it!
  • If I’m in the mood for something creamier, I’ll blend in a splash of coconut milk.

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just remember to give it a good shake before pouring, as the ingredients might settle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?
