Mango Coconut Agua Fresca - Vegan recipe hero image

This recipe holds a special place in my heart because it reminds me of lazy summer afternoons spent lounging on the porch, sipping something sweet and refreshing.

I stumbled upon the idea of mixing mango with coconut water while experimenting with different flavors, and it became an instant favorite.

The best part?

It’s so easy to whip up, and you can adjust the sweetness to your liking.

Trust me, you'll want this in your fridge all summer long!

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

When picking mangoes, make sure they’re ripe! They should give slightly when you press on them. For coconut water, I always go for the unsweetened kind to keep the natural flavors intact. If you can’t find coconut water, you can use plain water or another plant-based milk, but it’ll change the flavor a bit.

Tips & Notes

  • I like to keep some extra lime wedges on the side for those who want a little extra zing.
  • If you're feeling adventurous, try adding a pinch of sea salt—it's surprisingly good!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I throw in a handful of spinach for a nutrient boost without changing the flavor much.
  • You could also mix in some chopped pineapple for an extra tropical twist!

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in a glass jar in the fridge. Just remember to give it a little shake before you pour, as the ingredients may separate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?

Absolutely! Just store it in the fridge in an airtight container. It’s best consumed within 24-48 hours, but it tends to separate, so give it a good shake before serving.
