Instructions
Peel and slice your mangoes in ½ inch slices and place in a large bowl.

Allow the mango mixture to sit at room temperature for 2 hours, tossing halfway through.
After 2 hours, strain the mango syrup from the mango solids using a fine mesh strainer. Allow the mixture to strain for about 30 minutes, tossing halfway through to get the most syrup. Reserve the syrup, discard or save the mangoes for another use.
Transfer the mango syrup to an airtight container or syrup bottle, and store in the fridge for up to 7 days.
