What is mango peach mint water?

Mango peach mint water is water steeped with pieces of mango and peach and fresh mint leaves. The fruit lends a gentle sweetness, while mint gives the drink a fresh finish without requiring added sweetener.

This recipe is one of many tropical fruit infused water recipes you can make in a pitcher. The fruit is steeped rather than blended, so the finished drink is lighter in flavor and texture than a smoothie.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

For about 1 liter of water, use approximately 1 cup of chopped fruit in total and a small handful of mint. Weights and cup measures are approximate; the exact size of the fruit pieces will affect how much fits in a cup.

Water: 1,000 ml (4¼ cups)
Mango: 75 g (about ½ cup), peeled and cubed
Peach: 75 g (about ½ cup), sliced
Fresh mint: about 5 g (¼ cup loosely packed, roughly 8–12 leaves)

Choose ripe, fragrant fruit for the fullest flavor, and use a clean pitcher or jar with a lid. You can leave the peach skin on after washing it; remove the mango peel and both fruit pits before adding the flesh.

How do you make mango peach mint water?

Prep time: 10 minutes. Refrigerated steep: 2 hours. Total time: 2 hours 10 minutes. The recipe makes approximately 4 servings.

Wash the mango, peach and mint under running water, then drain them.
Cut the mango flesh into small cubes and the peach into thin slices, discarding the peel from the mango and the pits from both fruits.
Press the mint leaves gently between your fingers to release their aroma without shredding them.
Add the fruit and mint to a clean pitcher, pour in the water and cover it.
Refrigerate for 2 hours, then taste. Strain and serve, or leave the ingredients in for up to 4 hours for a stronger infusion.

Serve chilled, with ice if you like. Straining keeps the flavor from developing further; you can also leave a few pieces in each glass for presentation and eat them separately.

Why do mango, peach and mint work together?

Mango brings a rounded tropical flavor, while peach adds a softer, fragrant fruit note. Both give mango peach mint water a mild sweetness, though the result depends on how ripe the fruit is and how long it steeps.

The same gentle fruit flavor is the appeal of mango infused water and peach infused water; mint water adds a cooling herbal note. Pressing rather than tearing the leaves helps keep small pieces out of the glass.

The main benefit of the finished drink is hydration. Whole mango and peach contain vitamin C and fiber, but the amount that transfers into steeped water is uncertain; eating the fruit gives you its fiber rather than leaving it behind in the pitcher.

How should you store mango peach mint water?

Keep mango peach mint water covered in the refrigerator while it steeps and after serving. For the best flavor, drink it within 24 hours; discard leftovers after 2 days, or sooner if the water becomes cloudy or slimy or develops a sour smell.

Strain the fruit and mint after the steep if you prefer a lighter flavor. Return the pitcher to the refrigerator promptly after pouring, rather than leaving it at room temperature for an extended period.

How can you vary mango peach mint water?

Adjust the fruit balance

Use a little more mango for a rounder tropical flavor or more peach for a gentler, fragrant taste. Keep the combined fruit amount close to 1 cup per 1 liter of water so the drink remains an infusion rather than a fruit-packed mixture.

Change the mint intensity

Use fewer leaves for a subtle herbal finish, or use the full amount and steep for up to 4 hours for a more noticeable mint flavor. Taste as it chills and strain when the balance suits you.

Serve it with bubbles

For a sparkling version, steep the fruit and mint in still water first, then add a splash of chilled sparkling water to each glass just before serving.
