Tropicana Slice Alphonso – Aam Ka Aam without Goothli Ka Daam !!
I am a Mango Fan ! How about you ?
Ever since my father introduced me to the world of Mangoes – the king of fruits when I was an infant, my love for mangoes has been constantly increasing with time. I have vivid memories of summer holidays in Haridwar where I have used to relish the mangoes with my cousins and younger brother. We used to do the chilling act by dipping the cloth bag full of mangoes in the holy ganges for some time.That used to be real fun and the mangoes used to taste better after that.It is something very similar to the mango drink by Tropicana.
My Mango favourites
Let me also take this opportunity to share some information about this wonderful fruit.
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) belonging to Family Anacardiaceae is the most important commercially grown fruit crop of the country.  It is called the king of fruits. India has the richest collection of mango cultivars.
Having graduated from Mango Boy to Man , I have been fortunate to savour some of the most exotic mango varieties .My all time favourite is Emperor of Mangoes , one and only Alphonso.The next  10 choicest mangoes are as follows:
- Dasheri
- Chausa
- Langda
- Safeda
- Totapuri
- Bagampally
- Sindhura
- Kalmi
- Neelam
- Badami
I just love Alphonso. Just give me in any edible form please !
If you ask me ,how would I like to eat the Alphonso Mango, I would say in many many ways.
Apart from the traditional eating it raw , I prefer eating as Mango Kulfi.
Just mix the mango pulp with the mawa or Khoya and add milk to it and freeze it.
I also relish Aam Papad and recently introduced Mango jalebi too.
Well just heard that Tropicana has launched its alphonso variant of slice.
