Refreshing Mango Graham Shake

Hey guys, how you doing? Dave here. Welcome to Cookin' Chair. It's summertime, it's hot, and I decided to make this delicious shake. It's a mango graham shake. It's refreshing, it's perfect for summer. Absolutely delicious, and I'm going to have this by the river, maybe with a beer. You're going to love it. You're going to love it, so let me walk you through this. Okay guys, to kick things off here, what I have here is four ripe mangoes. Next up, what we're going to do is slice them up, and you want to do this on both sides because you will have a bone in the middle. Just something like this. So what I usually do is do kind of a cube pattern, and then we can simply remove the flesh. And I just love the smell of fresh mangoes. So for the puree, I'm going to add, oh, I'd say just about a cup of the mangoes into a blender, a couple of tablespoons of sugar, just for that sweetness, and about two tablespoons of water. And we're going to go ahead and puree this up. Okay, once it's pureed up, we're just going to set this aside. Oh, this looks absolutely delicious. Okay, after that, I'm going to add in the rest of the remaining mangoes, and this will be about, I'd say a cup and a half, about a cup of ice cubes, a cup of milk, and four tablespoons of sugar. Now, if you don't like the sugar, you can use honey or cut back on it. Then go ahead and blend this until it's well combined. All right, let's build our smoothie by adding a couple of tablespoons of pre-crushed graham crackers, or you can buy them and crush them by hand. Entirely up to you. Followed by our smoothie mixture. I'm going to fill this up, oh, I'd say about halfway. Then some whipped cream. Now, I'm using Cool Whip here, but you can use, you know, make it by hand. Then another tablespoon of graham crust on top. This is going to be so delicious. Then another layer of our smoothie. You don't want to fill this right up, just about three quarters. A little bit more cream, a few more mango cubes, and last but not least, a bit of puree on top. Doesn't this look incredible, guys? For the fun of it, and I'm just going to add a few more graham crumbs on top. And there you have it, guys, our mango graham smoothie. Incredibly delicious. Okay, guys, let's give this a taste test. Now, I'm going to give this a big scoop. You know, this is so incredibly delicious. The mango, the mango, the puree, the graham, just incredible. You got to make this. I just love it.
