Refreshing Mango Graham Shake

mango graham shake
It was a got summer day and I wanted something refreshing. Yes, a cold lemonade would have done the trick, but I wanted a drink somewhat different with a bit more body. Then, this mango graham shake came to mind. I remember having one when I lived in the Philippines and thus my quest began. Believe me guys, the outcome was incredible. I've had milkshakes before, but this is beyond a shake.

Note

I use the most fresh mangoes available. Sometimes in the off season, they are hard to find. 2% milk will suffice, but if you're not that diet conscious, you can use half and half. Alter the sugar content according to your liking.
