Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Mango Basil Paletas.
Step 1
Start by blending the mango chunks, chopped basil, lime juice, cayenne pepper, and salt in a blender until you achieve a smooth and vibrant mixture. This is where the magic begins! Pour this luscious blend into a large bowl, letting the flavors mingle and dance together.
