The inspiration for this recipe came to me on a hot summer day. I was craving something sweet and refreshing, but I didn't want anything too heavy. I had some frozen mango in my freezer, and I thought it would be the perfect base for a mousse. I added some coconut cream, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and turmeric to the blender, and blended until smooth. The result was a light, airy, and delicious mousse that was the perfect way to cool down on a hot day.
