Sparkling Aam panna recipe

Sparkling Aam panna recipe

Tangy and sweet ,fizzy raw mango  drink to keep you cool in summers.This one is a small little twist to my classic aam panna recipe.Add a little sparkle to the regular aam panna drink,with this fizzy version of refreshing homemade aam panna recipe.I usually prepare the classic version in summers, but sometimes, when I have friends over, or a small gathering , this sparkling version of my aam panna adds more life to my menu. At times I even do both versions – the classic one for the kids and the sparkling one for grown ups.The only difference in the classic and sparkling version is the use of sparkling water/ soda, in place of regular still water.

To prepare the sparkling version, I usually have the aam panna concentrate ready.The steps for making the concentrate are the same as in my classic aam panna recipe.For easier reference I’m adding the steps here as well.

To make the concentrate,I used peeled mangoes, as it is much easier to prep this one up.You can boil washed , peeled mangoes, with a little water in a cooker for 10-15 minutes or 2-3 whistles, till mangoes are all soft and pulpy.

You have the option to use whole mangoes without peeling. Once boiled the remove the skin and the seeds/pit, and mash the pulp using masher.

If you do not have a cooker to boil the mangoes, just boil the mangoes in a little water (water level a little above mangoes), in a covered pan for 15-20 minutes, till mangoes are soft.

Once the mangoes have boiled, add sugar and mix well.

When raw mango, and sugar mix has cooled down, crush/mash the boiled mangoes nicely  using a masher, so that the pulp is separated from the seeds/pit. If you like the mango bits in your aam panna you can leave it like this. If you want a smooth drink, blend the mangoes well with a hand blender, so that there are no mango bits left. I like the mango bits in my aam panna , so I do not blend the mangoes.

Notes

You can boil the mangoes with the skin on- wash the mangoes thoroughly and boil.Once done remove the skin and then mash the mangoes.
If you do not have a cooker, boil the mangoes in a little water (water level a little above mangoes), in a covered pan for 15-20 minutes, till mangoes are soft.
If you do not want to use sugar, you can use Jaggery instead.Add Jaggery powder, or crushed jaggery when the mango pulp is still hot and mix. Rest of the procedure remains the same.Let the mixture cool.
If you like the mango bits In your aam panna you can simple mash the boiled mango slightly. If you want a smooth drink, blend the mango pulp well with a hand blender, so that there are no mango bits left.
