I just love cocktails with fresh fruits, be it a pomegranate mimosa,<\/a> a cherry gin and tonic,<\/a> or a pomegranate mojito<\/a>. Cold and perfectly sweet, they\u2019re like a tropical vacation! A good margarita is a happy mix of all three. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why I love this 3-ingredient mango margarita recipe. It mixes fresh, juicy mango flavor with some exquisite tequila and a hint of paprika-salt on the glass rim.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n

Mango Margarita Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mango:<\/strong> I used mango juice to make this margarita. If you can get your hands on fresh mango juice, excellent; otherwise, use the regular packaged juice. Mango puree works too (fresh or canned).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tequila:<\/strong> Pick the best quality tequila you can get. A well-made and aged tequila is smooth with agave flavors. Its taste is earthy, very mildly peppery with suggestions of citrus and tiny fruity notes. A good margarita is one that brings all<\/em> these flavours into the drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garnish:<\/strong> Chili salt on the rim elevates everything! Trust me on it. However, the paprika is optional if you don\u2019t want a spicy mango margarita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Triple sec or Cointreau: <\/strong>Either or both are added in a classic margarita. So, please mix them in if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frozen mangoes:<\/strong> Use frozen mangoes in place of mango juice. Blend all the ingredients in a blender to make a frozen mango margarita!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fruits<\/strong>: Don't want to use mangoes? Try pineapple, watermelon (do try watermelon iced tea<\/a> next), peaches, or strawberries. Of course, it won\u2019t be a mango margarita then, but it\u2019ll still be a fantastic cocktail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lemon:<\/strong> If you like a bit of tang to your cocktail, add freshly squeezed lemon juice. It balances the sweetness of the mango and brings that classic margarita zing. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
