Notes

Use carton coconut milk (refrigerated beverage) for the best latte texture. Canned coconut milk is too thick and oily and will overpower the mango and coffee flavors.
Smooth mango puree works best for a clean, balanced drink. If your puree is fibrous, strain it first so it blends evenly into the latte.
Adjust sweetness depending on how ripe your mango is. Very ripe mango may need little to no added sugar, while store-bought puree usually benefits from a small amount of sweetener.
For a stronger coffee flavor, use a double espresso shot. This keeps the drink coffee-forward while still allowing the mango to come through.
For an extra creamy texture, use barista-style carton coconut milk. These versions foam better and create a more traditional latte mouthfeel.
If making the iced version, fill the glass fully with ice. This slightly dilutes the drink and creates a smoother, more balanced flavor.
You can substitute mango syrup for mango puree if you want a smoother, more café-style mango coconut latte.
This mango coconut latte is naturally dairy-free and works well with other plant-based milks like coconut-almond or coconut-oat blends.
