Mango Basil Freeze
Sweet mango pairs with an herbaceous finish in this fruity treat.
Ingredients
- 360 ml (1½ cup) plain yoghurt, or non-fat greek yogurt
- 8 g (2 Tablespoons) fresh basil leaves
- 30 m (2 Tablespoons) honey, or other sweetener
- 1 Tablespoon lime zest
- 670 g (1½ pound) frozen mango
Directions
- Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 50 seconds using the tamper to push ingredients toward the blades.
- In about 30-60 seconds, the sound of the motor will change and four mounds should form. Stop the machine. Do not over mix or melting will occur. Serve immediately.
Notes
Optimal temperature for frozen ingredients is 20 to 25 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mango with some tango
I modified this recipe with a tasty outcome. I added a frozen banana, 1/8 cup of 0 CAL, Kirkland Monkfruit sweetener, and a shot of Kirkland dark spiced rum ( the tango). I didn't have fresh basil so I used dried basil which still gave a hint of basil flavor. I used the frozen dessert setting and stopped the machine 3-4 seconds after the mounds formed. The consistency was perfect and lasted awhile, not having the instant melt of some of the other Vmix frozen dessert recipes I have tried.

Not Sweet Enough
This recipe was pretty good, it just needed to be a little sweeter.
