With just a few ingredients, no ice, a blender, and a fork, you can make a sweet and refreshing homemade mango granita, very different from the classic lemon version.
Thanks to the mango's fleshy texture, we'll achieve a very smooth granita, similar in texture to a sorbet. You can prepare this recipe with ripe mango, as we have done, or you can also use green mango, which is very popular in Latin America and will yield a less sweet granita.

Ingredients for Mango Granita (serves 4)
- 120 g water
- 70 g white sugar
- 300 g mango
- 30 g lemon juice
How to Make Mango Granita
We'll start by making a simple syrup. To do this, place 120 grams of water and 70 grams of sugar in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. As soon as the sugar has completely dissolved, remove it from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Blend 300 grams of mango with 30 grams of lemon juice. We need to achieve a very fine texture, with no chunks of mango left.
Add the simple syrup to the mango and blend for a few seconds until fully incorporated.
Pour the mango mixture into a freezer-safe container and cover it with plastic wrap. Place it in the freezer for 24 hours.
After the freezing time, remove the mango mixture from the freezer and scrape it with a fork until you have your finished granita.
Serve in glasses and enjoy immediately.
