  4. In the same blender, add the drained cashews along with the rest of the coconut milk, coconut oil, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and maple syrup. Process until smooth.(5 minutes)
  5. Add in the liquefied mango and process to combine. Adjust the sweetness to your liking. If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a splash of coconut milk.(2 minutes)
