Notes
This juice tastes best when freshly prepared and enjoyed the same day
Natural separation may occur during storage, so shake well before serving
Very ripe mangoes provide the best sweetness and smooth texture
If a juicer is unavailable, carrots can be blended with water and strained thoroughly
Adjust water for a thicker or lighter consistency based on preference
