Run a lime wedge around the rim of a cocktail glass and dip it in salt. Lime - not pictured! Use fresh squeezed juice.Īdd one ounce of mango nectar to a cocktail shaker and then add 1 tablespoon of lime juice.Īdd 2 dashes of grapefruit bitters, which is about ¼ a teaspoon.Īdd 2 ounces of tequila to cocktail shaker.Mango Nectar - usually easy to find at most grocery stores in the International foods aisle.Bitters - since the mango nectar was sweet, we used a little extra dash of a citrus bitters - in this case a Grapefruit bitters.Tequila - we usually use a Tequila Reposado - which means that it's been aged for at least 60 days and up to one year usually in an American oak barrel.I usually use own Homemade Orange Liqueur, but I was out (don't worry, I have another batch steeping!) Orange Liqueur - if you wonder about what type of orange liqueur to buy, the Serious Eats Guide to Orange Liqueur is a good read.Give this mango margarita a try (also called a Margarita de Mango) I think you'll love it!Ĭlick here to pin this refreshing margarita now! Ingredients This was hardly any more work than a regular margarita and had a fun, fruity vibe and a gorgeous color! I thought it would be perfect in a fruity cocktail and it was. Last Saturday, while looking in the fridge, I noticed a bottle of mango nectar that I bought for a recipe and hadn't used yet. I am definitely a salty snacker (you should see how salty I like my popcorn) so any salt rimmed cocktail automatically jumps to the top. There is something about that combination of tequila, lime juice, a little orange liqueur and salt that just keeps me coming back for more. Our routine is to watch a movie, and just for the record Netflix beats out all of our other cable channels combined, and sip a cocktail. We have margaritas almost every Saturday evening. This Mango Margarita is so easy and delicious! You don't even need fresh mangoes, made with easy to find mango juice or nectar! Fruity and tangy, it's the perfect cocktail! Lime wheels, orange slices, and mango chunks all also work for garnishes.Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe Get fancy with garnishes! Kosher salt is a standard ingredient for rimming your glass, but here you can swap that out with sugar crystals, or use Tajín chili pepper seasoning either on its own or mixed in with salt.To serve, strain over fresh ice in a rocks glass. If you use a mango nectar, which is usually sweetened, you may not need any simple syrup, so taste first and decide from there.
Shake that along with 2 ounces Blanco tequila, 3/4 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice from about 1 lime, 1/2 ounce orange liqueur, 1/2 ounce orange juice, and 1/2 ounce simple syrup (or more to taste). On the rocks! If you’d like a non-blended version of this, substitute 3 ounces of mango puree or juice for the frozen mango.Make it spicy! Blend in half (or more depending on your heat tolerance) of a jalapeno pepper, chopped and deseeded, with the rest of the ingredients.
