Mango Mastani is a popular drink / dessert in Pune, India. Mango Mastani is nothing but thick mango milkshake served with a scoop of ice cream garnished with nuts and dry fruits but still its rich and yummy. This mastani can be made with a different fruits but as its mango season tried with it.

It’s thick, creamy and has wonderful tropical sweetness from mangoes. Traditionally it’s served in a tall glass with layers of mango puree and ice cream, making it a real visual treat too.

This recipe has amazing texture. It has that creaminess from milk and ice cream, smoothness from mango puree and crunch from nuts. Tutti frutti adds a nice chewiness, while cherries and mango pieces give little pops of sweetness. It’s really a dessert that fun to eat and very satisfying.

You can also play around with it. Some people add mango jelly, some even add little whipped cream, or different ice cream flavors. I personally like adding mix of pistachios and cashews for nice nutty crunch. Each time it tastes little different but still very delicious.

I usually make this on weekends when I have fresh mangoes at home. My kids love it and honestly I can’t resist having a glass myself.

Mango Mastani Ingredients

• Mangoes – I have used soft ripe mangoes they give sweet fruity flavor. You can use mango type or you can even use canned mango pulp if fresh mangoes are not there.
• Milk – I just used full cream milk. You can use almond milk or soy milk if you want it lighter or different taste.
• Sugar – I have added sugar, but sometimes if mango is already sweet you can skip or use honey if you like natural sweetness.
• Vanilla Ice Cream – I added a scoop on top which makes it creamy and rich. You can use mango ice cream or other flavor too for more taste.
• Cashews and Pistachios – I have chopped them for garnish which gives nutty crunch. You can use almonds or any nuts you like too.
• Tutti Frutti – I have added little for color and texture. You can skip if you don’t like it.
• Mango Pieces – I have chopped few pieces for topping gives fresh mango taste. You can leave it out but looks nice with it.
• Cherries – I have kept one cherry on top for looks. You can skip or replace with any fruit you like.
