1. Prepare Mango: Peel and chop the ripe mango into small cubes.

2. Blend Ingredients: Add the mango cubes, yogurt, milk, and sugar or honey to a blender.

3. Add Spices: If using, sprinkle in the ground cardamom and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.

4. Blend Smooth: Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, add a little more milk.

5. Adjust Sweetness: Taste and adjust sweetness as needed by adding more sugar or honey.

6. Chill: If desired, add ice cubes to the blender and pulse briefly to incorporate. Alternatively, blend it without ice for a slightly thicker consistency.
