Sparkling Mango & Lime Cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Drinks
Cider culture is booming in Australia, and they often mix it with tropical fruits. The sweetness and fiber of mango give the drink a dense body, while the bubbles from fermentation make it light. This is a true summer refresher that requires patience to make.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Blender
  • Fermentation vessel with airlock
  • Nut milk bag or cheesecloth

Instructions

1 ✓

Puree the mango completely smooth in a blender.

Tip: If it remains chunky, it will be harder to strain at the end.
2 ✓

Mix the apple juice, mango puree, sugar, salt, and lime juice in the fermentation vessel.

Tip: Lime acidity protects the must from infections and balances the mango's sweetness.
3 ✓

Drop in the chopped mint, then sprinkle the yeast on top.

Tip: The mint flavor changes during fermentation, adding a cool background note.
4 ✓

Seal with an airlock and ferment for 7-10 days in a dark place.

Tip: Mango fibers may float to the top ('cap'); shake gently daily to keep it moist.
5 ✓

Strain thoroughly (this can be slow due to fibers), bottle, and refrigerate.

Tip: Cooling helps settle the fibers to the bottom of the bottle.

Recipe FAQ

Why is it foaming so much?
Mango fibers and proteins create a more stable foam during fermentation. Leave enough headspace in the vessel!
It turned sour.
If the yeast ate all the sugar, it becomes 'dry'. Sweeten to taste with sweetener when serving.
