Mango is a tropical fruit that makes me think of summer. Mango is a very common flavor for drinks and they can be found in most places. So instead of fighting with a mango to get the seed out, you can just stop by your local store and pick up a flavored drink.
Drinks You Can Pick Up At The Store
Jumex Mango Nectar
This drink I got at a Mexican restaurant, but I had seen it in King Soopers as well. I would not say that it is a juice drink even though I do think there is juice in there somewhere and the can says it is in there as well.....I was actually surprised when I opened it that there was a very sharp hiss like when you open a soda, but it did not seem bubbly when I drank it. I would buy this again because it was very light tasting and refreshing.
C4 Energy Mango Foxtrot
What pulled me into trying this drink was it was one of the few zero calorie drinks that Safeway had when I stopped by. It also had 250% of the daily B12 that you need, so I decided to give it a try. It was one of the worst energy drinks I have ever had. It was super sour and I struggled to choke it down. Tried June 2023.
Snapple Zero Sugar Mango TeaIt was ok. I normally don't have high expectations when it comes to zero calorie drinks, so when this one was drinkable I gave it at least a passing score. With that it still had a weird bitter taste. It is probably due to the artificial sweetener they used. We found this at Safeway and tried it in June 2023.
Ocean Bomb Mango
This can was themed from One Piece which is a pirate themed anime. The mango flavor was super light and was more like a mango cream soda. I would get this one again. I found this drink at Hmart in Aurora and tried it in July 2023.
Drinks At Restaurants
Mango Slush (Lollicup)
Super sweet. It was like drinking straight Mango syrup used for snow cones. It had that same thickness. The flavor was clear, but I don't think I would order it again.
Mango Slush (Juicy Pop)
So it was a little weird that I ordered this at one drink place and they were using drink toppers from another place. Even though it was supposed to be Mango, it was more a general fruit flavor then tasting specifically like Mango. It was still good and I would get it again.
Mango Boba (Osaka Poke and Ramen)
Even though the Mango flavor was not strong, it was still really good and smooth. Looking at it I had been afraid that the Mango would be overpowered by the dairy in it, but it wasn't. I would recommend this drink if you are in the mall in Pueblo.
Mango Lemonade (Chili's)
The mango lemonade is the one on the right. It was really good, but it did feel over sweetened. Still, I'd order it again. Tried June 2023.
Mango Jasmine Green Tea (Happy Lemon)
First off the drink was really overpriced when compared to similar drinks and size at other places. The drink did have a good blend of Mango and jasmin with neither overpowering the other. There were actually little pieces of Mango in it. The drink did not have bobas because this is one of the places that upcharge for them even though they already have higher prices on their drinks any way. If you were going to get a drink at Happy Lemon I would say this is a good one to try, but at the same time I would also tell you to just go somewhere else since they way over charge for their product.
Mahalo Mango (Robeks)
First off the drink was super overpriced for the size, but this seems like a common problem for 'healthy' juice places. I would saw that this drink was more fruity then mango focused. The other flavors in the drink overpowered the mango and you only got a hint of mango every now and then. Not worth the time or money. Tried in June 2023.
Mango Boba Slush (Spicy Asian Chinese Cuisine)
This drink was like drinking straight mango syrup, it was that sweet. It was ok for size vs. price, but that combined with the food order issues we had here does not make me think that I will be going back except if I was in the area and wanted a super sweet drink. Tried May 2023.
Mango Lemonade (Café Rio)
Not my favorite lemonade there (the mint wins hands down), but not bad. If you are looking for something fruity then this would be a good drink to try.
