Mango adds sweetness to your palate and life.”Sharing fond memories related to mangoes she recalls, “I had a mango tree outside my house in Delhi. Climbing the tree and picking mangoes gave me a high. I would invite neighbours to join the first feast of the mango season. Another, unique family tradition was wrapping mangoes in a cloth and leaving them in a pond near our house so they become chilled before we relished them.”
