Personally, I love Philippines mangoes because they have a strong mango flavor and are sweet. And, I grew up eating a lot of them especially during summer. However, it is hard to find Philippines mangoes in the states.
Most mangoes in the states are Ataulfo mangoes and Haden mangoes. They do not have a strong mango flavor compared with Philippines mangoes. In this easy homemade mango popsicles recipe, I used Ataulfo mangoes.
