Notes
Storage: Best consumed fresh. If needed, store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours—shake well before serving as separation may occur. Make-ahead: Prep ginger and measure dry spices the night before. Variations: Substitute mango with frozen pineapple; add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for warmth. For a protein boost, blend in 1 scoop of vanilla plant-based protein powder.
