Mango, rum and young coconut ice blocks

Based on the idea of a mango daiquiri, this is a wonderfully refreshing (and slightly boozy) grown up ice block — perfect for hot summer days. You will need to use mangoes that are very sweet and almost too ripe to give you the right flavour.

Ingredients

  • 300 ml fresh young coconut juice, strained
  • 30 g raw caster sugar
  • 300 g fresh mango, pureed in a blender until smooth
  • 60 ml lime juice
  • 70 ml white rum
  • 2 tsp orange bitters (see Note)
Freezing time overnight

Instructions

Place the young coconut juice and sugar in a saucepan over a medium heat. Warm it up just enough to dissolve the sugar. Set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.

Once it has cooled, add it into the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.

Pour the mix into ice block moulds and freeze overnight.

Note

• You can substitute the orange bitters with Angostora.
