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 or honey or 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 each glass into the seasoning, rolling it on all sides until fully coated. Set the rimmed glasses aside while you make the frozen mango margarita.
- Blend the margarita: In a high-powered blender, add the frozen mango chunks, tequila, freshly squeezed lime juice, and guava jelly (or agave, honey, simple syrup) for sweetening. Blend until smooth and well combined.
- Adjust consistency and sweetness: Check the margarita’s consistency and taste. If the mixture is too thin, add ice as needed to thicken it. Add more sweetener to your preference if desired, then blend a little more to mix any additions.
- Serve: Divide the frozen mango margarita evenly between the two rimmed glasses. Garnish with sliced lime wedges or fresh mango pieces if desired. Enjoy your festive frozen mango margarita!
Notes
- Use a high-powered blender for a smoother consistency.
- Adjust sweetness according to your preference; guava jelly adds a unique flavor but honey, agave, or simple syrup work well too.
- Tajín seasoning on the rim adds a nice tangy spice, but it is optional.
- If the margarita is too thick after blending, you can add a splash of water or more lime juice to thin it slightly.
- For an extra festive touch, freeze lime slices or mango pieces ahead to use as garnish and keep the drink chilled longer.
