Notes
The drink tastes best with fresh mango puree. To make it, blend ripe mango chunks until smooth.
Store-bought mango puree works in a pinch - just check that it contains no added sugar.
For extra ginger flavor, muddle a small piece of fresh ginger with the mint leaves.
Keep ginger beer chilled for the best fizz. Once opened, it stays bubbly for 2-3 days in the fridge.
Make it non-alcoholic by skipping the vodka and adding extra ginger beer.
