It is very popular in northern Chile, where it brings together the freshness of mango and the pisco of the region.

## Additional Tips

### Make your own mango juice

Blend 2 ripe mangoes with 300 ml of cold water until smooth, then strain and sweeten lightly if you like.

### Balance the sweetness

If it tastes too sweet, add the juice of half a lemon to cut the sugar and lift the mango flavor.

### Serve immediately

The mixture separates if it sits; if you have leftovers, blend again briefly before serving.

| Original ingredient | Substitute | Ratio | Flavor note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Mango juice | Frozen mango pulp | 1:1 | Frappé texture, use less ice |
| Pisco | Orange juice and tonic water | 1:1 | Alcohol-free |
| Sugar | Simple syrup | To taste | Dissolves faster |
| Orange slice | Lime wheel | 1 per glass | Sharper aroma |

## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

### 1. Can I use frozen mango pulp?

Yes. It gives a frappé-like texture; just reduce the ice so it does not get watery.

### 2. What if it is too sweet?

Add the juice of half a lemon; the acidity cuts the sugar and brightens the mango.

### 3. How do I make it alcohol-free?

Leave out the pisco and increase the mango and orange juice, adding a little tonic water or ginger ale for bubbles.

### 4. Can I make it ahead?

It is best served immediately, since the juice tends to separate; reblend quickly if needed.

## What Is a Mango Sour?

The mango sour is a fruity variation of the Chilean pisco sour, made with mango juice instead of lemon as the main flavor, popular in the warm north of Chile.

## Benefits of Mango

Mango provides soluble fiber and vitamins A, C, E, and K, along with antioxidants.
