Looking for something refreshing and different to sip on this summer? The Last Mango in Paris may be your drink. It’s named after the 1972 movie Last Tango in Paris, an erotic film starring Marlon Brando, which was considered quite risqué in the 70’s. Today, the film carries an NC-17 rating, but the drink it’s named after would earn nothing more than a PG-13, as far as adult beverages are concerned.
Just a side note, if your mango is really ripe, you may choose to forgo the mango juice {Juicy Juice has a good one.} However, if you like your drink on the sweeter side, then mango juice it up.
Enjoy!
