It’s Mango Season Guanacaste!

Properties in Costa Rica

Costa Rica is abundant in natural fruit and vegetables. But many of the trees only bear fruit once the Costa Rican summer is over and the green season has begun. Beginning March and April and peaking May and June you will find Mangos all over Guanacaste. During this time mangos are everywhere, you can pick ripe juicy mangos right off the ground as you go about your day. It’s the perfect opportunity to do as the monkeys do and enjoy a delicious mango! Eat the juicy ones over the sink our stand outside on your balcony overlooking the ocean as you peal away the skin of ripe mango.

Need inspiration on what to do with all those mangos? Keep it simple and raw. Blend the mangos with some ice and milk, water or yogurt and create delicious smoothies. Pour the mix into an ice cream maker or ice pop tray and you have a delicious frozen treat. If you’re in the mood for something more savory cut the mango into squares, do the same to an Avocado or two (also in season now), add some black beans, season with olive oil, lime juice, salt and pepper and you have a delicious fresh, seasonal salad!

Happy eating!
