Easy Dragon Fruit Mango Summer Drink Recipe (No Added Sugar)

Two homemade dragon fruit mango summer drinks with fresh mango, dragon fruit, ice and pink straws

By: Mauve Juliette van Marle


Looking for a refreshing summer drink that is fruity, delicious, and super easy to make? This Dragonfruit Mango Summer Drink is SO good! No more endless trips to Starbucks, you can try this drink instead. It is bright, colourful, naturally sweet from the fruit and mango juice, and perfect for a hot summer day. 

The best part is that it isn't too sweet! You can add a little cranberry juice if you want an extra fruity flavour, but it is totally optional.


It also looks so pretty and aesthetic if you ask me in a clear glass, especially with the pink dragon fruit and golden mango pieces that top it off. This would be perfect for a summer hangout, or just when you want a fun drink at home!


Ingredients

  • Dragonfruit
  • Mango juice
  • Ice

Instructions (Makes 2 drinks)

  • 2 cups ice
  • 2 cups mango juice
  •  2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup cranberry juice (optional)
  • ½ cup fresh dragon fruit, cut into small pieces and placed at the bottom
  •  ½ cup fresh mango, cut into small cubes
  • Extra lemon or dragon fruit for decorating (optional)
  • Pink straws (because obviously!)

Instructions


1. Add the fruit

Start by putting some of your dragon fruit and fresh mango pieces into the bottom of each glass. I like adding a few extra pieces because they make the drink look SO pretty and taste even better!


2. Add the ice 

Fill each glass with ice. 


3. Mix your juice

In a measuring cup or pitcher, mix together the mango juice and fresh lemon juice. If you want your drink to have a little more tangy, fruity flavour, add the cranberry juice too. If you prefer to have it less sweeter, you can add some water to top it off.


4. Pour it in!

Pour the juice mixture over the ice, and fresh dragon fruit and mango slices. 


5. Top it off

Add more fresh mango and dragon fruit pieces to the top. You can also add a little dragon fruit slice to the edge of the glass if you want to make it look extra fancy.


6. Grab a straw and enjoy! 

You now have a delicious, fruity Dragonfruit Mango Summer Drink that's perfect for sipping outside on a sunny day.

Final Thoughts

This drink is basically summer in a glass! 


The mango juice makes it naturally sweet, while the lemon juice and cranberry juice gives it a fresh little zing. The dragon fruit adds a pretty pink colour and tiny crunchy seeds, and the fresh mango pieces make it even more refreshing and healthy to drink. Hope you enjoy! What is your favourite summer recipe?
