Everyday sommelier: go mango!

Spicy mango margarita

Whitebox x Selfridges, £4.99, selfridges.com

Mango margarita

Moth, £4 (125ml), sainsburys.co.uk

Great minds think alike – brand new seasonal tinnies from the most reliable RTD cocktail brands. 

No Worries mango 

Lervig Alcohol Free Beer, £2.60, wisebartender.co.uk

A juicy summer pale from one of our top non-alc ale makers – excellent with spicy food.

Spoon rest

H&M, £9.99, hm.com

You think you don’t need a spoon dish, but actually they’re very useful for cooks with a hobful of things to stir. This one’s made of… yep, mango wood.

Hot mango pickle 

Ferns’, £3.80, souschef.co.uk

We’ve never met a mango pickle we didn’t like, but this is a current favourite due to larger fruit pieces.

Mango chutney

Geeta’s, £2.15, morrisons.com

Widely available, nicely spiced, there is no cheddar toastie (or ready salted crisp) that isn’t improved by a generous splodge.

Mango chutney potato grills

Cofresh, £1.20, sainsburys.co.uk

An all-in-one treat for those who like to dip crisps in mango chutney, but don’t enjoy the judgy looks. 

Mango pulp

KTC, £2.78, asda.com

Best used in desserts and baking – even in mango season (way more affordable).

Mango & passion fruit ice-cream

Waitrose No 1, £4.50, waitrose.com

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Waitrose No 1 is the best ice-cream available in supermarkets. This one is properly mangoey.

Frozen mango chunks

Ocado, £3.20, ocado.com

Always useful for off-season smoothies, breakfast bowls and frozen daiquiris.
