When you grow up in South Florida, you’re sometimes blessed with a mango tree in your backyard. I was one of those blessed people!
To this day, my parents still have the mango tree in their backward. This only means that whenever mango season comes around, I make ALL the things – mango jam, mango Moscow mule, mango berry iced tea sangria, and then I decided to make this delicious mango salsa!
It tastes SO refreshing, tart, sweet, with a slight kick. It’s SO good!
Ingredients You’ll Need

How To Cut a Mango
How To Cut a Mango- First, place the mango on the cutting board and slice a small piece of the bottom to help stand it up as you slice it.
- Next, stand the mango up on the cutting board and cut a slice as close to the pit as you can. Do the same on the other side. You should have two halves.
- Take one of the halves and score it, being careful not to slice through the peel, by making vertical and horizontal lines with your knife. It should look like cubes (little squares). Do the same with the other half.
- Invert the mango so the cubes are sticking out then use a knife to cut them off the peel of both halves.
