Mango Gelado

What is it?

Frozen mango and water are the main ingredients here, blended into a smooth, sorbet-style dessert. It’s dairy-free, served cold, and sits in the lighter end of Nando’s dessert range, where fruit and ice take the lead instead of cream or cake. Texture-wise, it’s closer to a granita than an ice cream, with a soft, scoopable body and a clean melt. The flavour is straightforward mango, with enough sweetness to read as dessert and enough acidity to keep it from tasting heavy.
