The inspiration for this recipe came to me on a sweltering summer day when I was looking for a way to cool down and energize. I had some ripe mangoes on hand, so I decided to experiment with them. I combined them with coconut milk, water, matcha powder, and mint leaves in a blender and blended until smooth. The resulting elixir was so delicious and refreshing that I knew I had to share it with the world.
