When is a Mango Ripe?
Using ripe mangoes in this recipe makes all of the difference in getting the incredibly bright taste. You can recognize ripe mangoes by their feel. When you feel it, it will give slightly indicating that it has soft flesh inside it. This is what you are looking for. For this particular fruit punch recipe, I used the Tommy Atkins mango variety. Youโll recognize them in store by their dark red blush that often covers much of the fruit with green and orange-yellow accents. To see what mangoes are in season throughout the year, visit here.
