Slushy pitcher of Mango Margaritas made with frozen mango, tequila, and triple sec are great for a party like Cinco De Mayo!
Since it's Saturday, and I'm dreaming of the warmer days of spring I figure there's no better time then the present to share my favorite recipe for Mango Margaritas!
We made a pitcher of these Mango Margaritas last weekend to go with Fish Tacos with Blueberry Mango Salsa. It wouldn't be Mexican night without a Margarita!
Mango Margaritas are up there in my top 3 favs! I like to use frozen mangoes so they stay slushy, and don't loose flavor from too much ice.
I'll add a cup of ice cubes or additional frozen mangoes to the pitcher to help them stay cold longer. I find a few whole ice cubes melt a lot slower then once they are pureed, and prolongs the slushiness of the Mango Margaritas.
Here's how I make a pitcher of Frozen Mango Margaritas:
Our blenders on it's last leg so I had Colt use the Food Processor, but I usually use the blender.
Add to the blender or food processor:
- 2 pounds Frozen Mangos
- 1/3 cup Sugar
Juice 1 cup of Fresh Lime Juice, it's about 3 whole Juicy Limes.
Add lime juice to mangoes, and puree until smooth.
If you are using a food processor whatever you do don't add the alcohol at this point..
If you are using a food processor whatever you do don't add the alcohol at this point.. Colt usually doesn't use the food processor, so he forgot their was a hole in the middle. He just finished adding all the liquid when I walked into the kitchen.. Two seconds later it started running out the bottom of the food processor, it was quite comical mess. So we grabbed a bowl to strain out the liquid.
If your using the blender everything can go in.
Add mango puree to a large pitcher.
Stir in:
- 1 1/3 cup Silver Tequila
- 1 1/3 cup Triple Sec
Use a slice of Lime to wet the rim of glasses.
Mix together:
- 1 tablespoon Chili Lime Seasoning like Tajin
- 1 tablespoon Pink Himalayan Salt
Fill glasses and garnish with a slice of lime. Be warned if you used frozen mango instead of ice cubes they seem to absorb the alcohol for a boozy little treat.
Cheers to a great weekend! Make sure to grab the printable version of the recipe below.
