RE: Peak season for mangoes

Same here in the Philippines, mango season starts when it's dry season around April, May, until July. The most common type of mango is the one we called Indian mango. It's a bit round and shorter compared to the usual mango that is mostly consumed ripe. We often consume Indian mango unripe, whether pickles or eat them plain with salt and chili. Some mangoes are perfect for juice, especially the ones we call carabao mango. We just add milk and ice to the grated or diced ripe mangoes and its perfect!

When I was young, we had a lot of mango trees in our farm. It was such a feast for the eyes seeing them bloom and fruit abundantly. However, because of the strong typhoons that hit the Philippines, all of these mango trees were gone.
