Ingredients
  

1 ripe mango, peeled and diced

1 cup frozen dragon fruit (or fresh if available)

2 cups water

1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)

1/4 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mango Puree: In a blender, combine the diced mango with 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth and set aside.

    Process the Dragon Fruit: In the same blender, if using frozen dragon fruit, add it to the remaining 1 cup of water, and blend until you achieve a smooth consistency. If using fresh, cut and scoop the flesh into the blender first.

      Combine Ingredients: In a large pitcher, combine the mango puree, dragon fruit mixture, freshly squeezed lemon juice, honey or agave syrup, and sea salt. Stir well until everything is combined and the honey is fully dissolved.

        Adjust Sweetness: Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness as necessary by adding more honey or agave if desired.

          Chill: Refrigerate the lemonade for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and to chill.

            Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled mango dragon fruit lemonade over the ice.

              Garnish: Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves for added freshness and aroma.
