Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using fresh turmeric for its vibrant flavor, but ground turmeric works beautifully too—just remember to adjust the quantity. If you can’t find coconut water, plain water will work, but you’ll miss that lovely tropical vibe. As for mango, the riper, the better; you want it to be sweet and juicy!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep a batch of chopped mango in the freezer for quick blending anytime I crave this elixir.
- •If you want to boost the health benefits, throw in a pinch of black pepper—it's known to enhance turmeric absorption!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll add a handful of spinach for an extra nutrient boost—it's a great way to sneak in some greens.
- •If I’m in the mood for a spice kick, a dash of cayenne pepper can add an exciting twist!
Storage & Freezing
This elixir is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good shake before drinking, as it may separate a bit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen mango?
Absolutely! Frozen mango works great and makes the elixir even colder. Just skip the ice if you're using frozen.
Is there a substitute for coconut water?
You can use plain water or even almond milk if you prefer a creamy texture. Just keep in mind it’ll change the flavor a bit.

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Start by peeling and dicing your mango. If you’ve never cut a mango before, cut it along the sides of the pit and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.
- 2
Next, if you’re using fresh turmeric, peel and chop it into smaller pieces. If you’re using ground turmeric, you can skip this step.
- 3
In a blender, combine the diced mango, chopped turmeric (or ground turmeric), coconut water, fresh lime juice, and maple syrup.
- 4
Add the ice cubes and blend until smooth. You want a lovely, creamy texture.
- 5
Taste your elixir and adjust sweetness with more maple syrup if desired. Sometimes I like it a little sweeter.
- 6
Pour the elixir into glasses and garnish with a slice of lime or a sprinkle of extra turmeric if you’re feeling fancy!
