Orange & Mango Cocktail Via Susiequsie

"SusieQusie & I are in "Recipe Exchange Mode" these dys. I'm not sure why she passed this 1 along to me, but am glad she did. Her source was Graham Kerr again & he said: "Orange & mango are a perfect combo for a sweet & refreshing drink. Valencia oranges are preferred for their flavor & tartness." Thx SQ!"

  1. This was a superb cocktail, which I enjoyed very much. I slowly added the club soda into the orange and mango mixture until it was at the consistency that I wanted. This drink was just wonderful, it was quick and easy to make; flavorful, thick, sweet, tangy and very refreshing. I really enjoyed the combination of orange and mango. Thanks so much to Susie and you for sharing.
     
  2. Light and refreshing. It was a bit thinner than I expected, due to the club soda I'm sure. I like that it is low calorie and if I'm looking for a fruity, low cal drink I may make this again. My DD didn't care for it. Not sure why as she likes both oranges and mangos. Thanks for sharing.

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
