Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 cup blanco (silver) tequila
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 4 small limes)
- 1–2 tablespoons guava jelly (or agave, honey, simple syrup) for sweetening, to taste
- Ice, as needed
For Serving
- Tajín seasoning, for rimming the glasses (optional)
- Sliced lime and/or fresh mango pieces, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the Glasses: Sprinkle some Tajín seasoning onto a plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of two glasses and dip them into the seasoning, rolling the glass on all sides until fully coated. Set the rimmed glasses aside while you prepare the margarita.
- Blend the Ingredients: In a high-powered blender, combine the frozen mango chunks, blanco tequila, freshly squeezed lime juice, and guava jelly (or your preferred sweetener). Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Adjust Consistency and Sweetness: Check the consistency and taste of the margarita. If it is too thin, add ice incrementally to thicken. Add additional sweetener if desired to suit your preference.
- Serve: Pour the blended mango margarita evenly into the two rimmed glasses. Garnish with sliced lime wedges and/or fresh mango pieces if desired. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use a high-powered blender to achieve a smooth, creamy texture.
- Adjust the sweetness with honey, agave, or simple syrup based on your taste preference.
- Tajín seasoning adds a spicy and tangy flavor to the glass rims; substitute with coarse salt if preferred.
- For a stronger margarita, slightly increase the tequila amount but be mindful of balance.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the best frozen texture and flavor.
