Why Mango Margaritas?
This fruity twist on the classic margarita blends the sweetness of mango with the zing of lime and tequila. It’s a crowd-pleaser that screams summer vibes!
What You'll Need (Part 1)
- 2 oz blanco tequila- 1 oz fresh lime juice- 1 oz orange liqueur (like Cointreau)- 1 oz mango puree (fresh or store-bought)
What You'll Need (Part 2)
- 1 tbsp agave syrup (optional for sweetness)Ice- Tajín or salt for rimming- Lime wedge and mango slice for garnish
Tools of the Trade
You’ll need a cocktail shaker, a blender (if using fresh mango), a strainer, and margarita glasses. No shaker? Use a mason jar with a lid!
Mango Magic
If using fresh mango, peel and dice it, then blend until smooth. For a shortcut, grab store-bought mango puree or frozen mango chunks.
Shake It Up!
Combine tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, mango puree, and agave (if using) in a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until chilled.
Rim and Serve
Run a lime wedge around the glass rim and dip it in Tajín or salt. Strain the margarita into the glass over fresh ice.
Make It Your Own
- Spicy Kick: Add a slice of jalapeño to the shaker.- Frozen Version: Blend with ice for a slushy texture.- Non-Alcoholic: Skip the tequila, add extra mango puree and a splash of soda.
Serve in Style
Garnish with a lime wedge and mango slice. For extra flair, try a chili-sugar rim or a sprig of mint. Pair with chips and guacamole or tacos!
