Step 1
Start by making a simple syrup: combine the sugar and 1/4 cup of water in a small saucepan. Warm it over low heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves completely, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Once the syrup is ready, take it off the heat and let it cool for around 15 minutes.

Step 2
Next, toss the mangoes, the cooled simple syrup, lime juice, and 1 cup of water into a blender. Blend everything until it's nice and smooth. To get a silky texture, strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a pitcher.

Step 3
Add the remaining water and stir in the fresh mint leaves. Give it a good stir, then pop it in the fridge to chill for at least a couple of hours before serving. This way, the flavors have time to meld and the drink is refreshingly cool.
