Drink and Smoothie Recipes
Alouda, fresh fruit juices, smoothies and rum-based cocktails.
Mauritius drinks cold and sweet. Alouda from a Port Louis stall, fresh sugarcane and fruit juices, iced vanilla tea, and rum cocktails built on the island's own distilleries.
These recipes use fruit that grows here — mango, papaya, pineapple, passion fruit, lychee, coconut — so they cost very little in season and taste like nothing you can buy in a bottle.

Making the most of Mauritian fruit
Freeze ripe fruit in chunks at the end of the season and blend it straight from frozen for thicker smoothies without watering them down with ice. Passion fruit and lychee are strong enough to carry a drink on their own; mango and banana need a little lemon to stop them tasting flat.
