Make the mango jelly: sprinkle the gelatin on the mango juice and let bloom for 3-5 minutes then stir in the hot water. When the gelatin is dissolved, stir in the sugar, if using, then the mango puree. Pour into a small rectangular dish or container and let set, about 4 hours. When set, cut into small cubes.

Make the mango smoothie: Blend the frozen mango cubes with the juice and ice until smooth.

Assemble: Add some mango jelly to the bottom of a glass, then top with the mango smoothie and some fresh mango cubes. Enjoy immediately!
Notes
You can use store-bought frozen mango chunks as well but I find that fresh ones are almost always sweeter, so I peel, cube, and freeze fresh mangos specifically for this smoothie.
