Taste the mango mixture before freezing and adjust the sweetener, black salt and spices according to your preference.
Ipshita’s Note
I love the combination of sweet mango with a little khatta-meetha, chatpata flavour. The black salt, chaat masala and roasted jeera turn a simple mango popsicle into something much more interesting and refreshing.
