Step-by-Step Instructions for Mango Lemonade

In a saucepan, combine ¾ cup of granulated sugar with 1 cup of water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, about 3-4 minutes. Let cool.
Peel and cube ripe mangos, adding them to a blender with 3 cups of water. Blend on high until smooth, about 30-60 seconds.
Strain the blended mango mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher, discarding any pulp.
Add 3 cups of water, ½ cup of lemon juice, and the cooled syrup to the pitcher. Stir well.
Serve over ice and garnish with a slice of lemon or mint for a colorful touch.
