A quick and easy frozen mango margarita with a spicy Tajin rim that refreshes and cools you off instantly. Perfect for summer gatherings, this cocktail blends ripe mango, tequila, lime juice, and a tangy, spicy rim for a crowd-pleasing treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh mango, peeled and diced (or frozen mango chunks)
  • 1/2 cup silver tequila (120 ml)
  • 1/4 cup triple sec or orange liqueur (60 ml)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (60 ml), about 2 limes
  • 1–2 tablespoons simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 2 cups ice cubes (about 480 ml)
  • Tajin seasoning for rimming glasses
  • Coarse salt mixed with Tajin for rim (optional)
  • Lime wedges for wetting rim and garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the glass rims: Run a lime wedge around the rim of margarita glasses to moisten them. Spread a thin layer of Tajin seasoning mixed with coarse salt on a shallow plate. Dip each glass rim into the seasoning mixture, twisting slightly to coat evenly. Set aside.
  2. Juice the limes: Use a citrus juicer or squeeze by hand about 1/4 cup (60 ml) of fresh lime juice. Strain out seeds if needed.
  3. Blend the mango mixture: In a blender, combine 2 cups peeled, diced mango, 1/2 cup silver tequila, 1/4 cup triple sec, 1/4 cup fresh lime juice, and 1-2 tablespoons simple syrup. Add 2 cups ice cubes last. Blend on high until ice is crushed and mixture is smooth but thick, with a slushy consistency.
  4. Taste and adjust: Taste the margarita. If too tart, add more simple syrup; if too sweet, add more lime juice. Blend briefly if adjustments are made.
  5. Serve immediately: Pour the frozen mango margarita into prepared glasses. Garnish with a lime wedge or small mango slice. Serve right away.

Notes

Use ripe mangoes for best sweetness and creamy texture. Adjust simple syrup and lime juice to balance sweetness and tartness. Add ice last to help blender crush evenly. Rim glasses just before serving to avoid sogginess. If blender struggles, pulse ice before blending continuously. Store leftovers in airtight container in freezer up to 2 days and blend again before serving.
