If you’ve ever had the Coconut Mango Boom from HeyTea, then you already know why people are obsessed with it. This refreshing mango drink combines sweet ripe mangoes, creamy coconut milk, chewy sago pearls, and fruity mango jellies into one incredibly satisfying beverage. It’s part smoothie, part boba drink, and part dessert, making it the perfect treat on a hot day.

What I love most about this drink is the combination of textures. You get the icy mango slush, the rich coconut cream, the chewy sago, and the juicy mango jellies all in one sip. Every layer brings something different to the drink, which is why it feels so much more exciting than a standard smoothie or fruit tea.

As much as I love stopping by HeyTea for a Coconut Mango Boom, I can’t always justify driving 30+ minutes, waiting in line, and spending $10 every time a craving hits. The good news is that it’s surprisingly easy to recreate at home with just a handful of ingredients. Not only does it taste incredibly close to the original, but you can customize the sweetness, load it up with extra toppings, and enjoy it whenever the craving strikes.
