Ingredients and Substitutions

A full ingredients list, along with US Customary and Metric measurements, can be found in the recipe card at the end of this post.

• Mango - Frozen mango gives the cooler its thick, icy texture without needing to add lots of ice. You can use fresh mango, but the finished drink will be thinner and less chilled. Freeze the mango pieces beforehand or add a handful of ice cubes if using fresh fruit.
• Passionfruit juice - Use a passionfruit juice drink, juice blend or tropical juice containing passionfruit. Different brands vary in sweetness and strength, so you may need to adjust the quantity. A mango and passionfruit juice blend will give an even stronger mango flavour, while a tropical juice adds more pineapple or orange notes. Pure passionfruit juice can be quite sharp and concentrated. If using it, dilute it with water or another fruit juice before blending.

Mango and Passionfruit Cooler Variations

Sweeter - The drink should usually be sweet enough without adding anything else. However, if your juice is quite sharp, blend in a little honey, maple syrup or simple syrup. Taste the cooler before adding sweetener, as frozen mango can be naturally very sweet.

Thicker - Add extra frozen mango for a thicker, more spoonable drink. You could also add a handful of ice, although too much ice can dilute the fruit flavour.

Sparkling - Blend the mango with only enough juice to make it smooth, then top up the glass with sparkling water. Stir gently rather than blending the sparkling water, as it will foam up.

Creamy - Add a spoonful of Greek yogurt, coconut yogurt or a splash of coconut milk. This changes it from a juice-style cooler into something closer to a smoothie.
