I remember the first time I made this Tropical Mango & Turmeric Cooler on a hot summer day.
I was feeling a bit sluggish and needed something refreshing and uplifting.
As I blended the ingredients, the vibrant color reminded me of the beach, and that’s when I knew I had something special.
This drink is packed with nutrients and is so simple to whip up, it’s become a staple in my kitchen.
A little tip: always use ripe, juicy mangoes for the best flavor!

Ingredients & Substitutions
I really love using fresh turmeric for its earthy flavor, but if you can't find it, the ground version works just as well. Coconut water is hydrating and adds a lovely sweetness, but you could also use plain water if you want something lighter. And of course, the more lime juice you add, the more zingy it gets!
Tips & Notes
- •If you want to make this a smoothie bowl, just reduce the coconut water a bit and top it with your favorite granola and fruits.
- •I sometimes add a pinch of black pepper to enhance the turmeric’s benefits—just a little goes a long way!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I throw in a banana for extra creaminess and sweetness.
- •If I want a little spice, I add a small piece of ginger to the blender.
Storage & Freezing
This cooler is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store it in the fridge for up to a day. Just give it a good shake before drinking, as it may separate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen mango?
Absolutely! Frozen mango works great and can give your cooler a thicker, slushie-like texture.
