I have been loving mangoes so much lately – there’s nothing better than biting into a ripe juicy mango! When I have extra mangoes, I love to throw them into curries, soups, and especially cocktails.
This spicy Mango Jalapeno Margarita is the absolute best way to add a fun twist to your taco night. This recipe uses fresh or frozen mango, fresh jalapeno, lime juice and NO SUGAR for the best margarita cocktail ever.
This Fresh Mango Jalapeno Margarita Is
- Sweet
- Tangy
- Fruity
- Citrus-y
- Great for one drink or a big batch
- A refreshing summer cocktail
What’s In This Mango Margarita with Jalapeno Peppers?
- Mango – I like using fresh or frozen mangoes, depending on what I have on hand. Mango is sweet, juicy, and so delicious blended into this drink.
- Jalapeno peppers for a kick.
- Tequila! I used reposado, but use whatever kind you prefer.
- Lime Juice, preferably freshly squeezed
- Ice
- Margarita Salt… because salt, lime, tequila is a classic combo!
And of course, cactus margarita glasses, because they are SO fun.
A Great No Sugar Added Margarita Cocktail
A lot of margaritas you’d get at a bar or restaurant are made with simple syrup, which is a syrup made of sugar and water. Instead of adding sugar to this recipe, the blended mango adds enough sweetness instead. So you can have a sweet drink that is also refined sugar free!
I’ve been trying to have a fun cocktail every Friday, to celebrate the end of the work (from home!) week and to kickoff the weekend in style. Margaritas s are my summer go-to cocktail, so I’ll be making a lot of these as long as my mango supply hold out. If you want to use frozen mangoes, that would work too! Just use 1 cup frozen mango instead of the fresh.
How Do I Make this Spicy Margarita with Mango?
- Add all ingredients to a high speed blender. Start on low speed, and gradually work your way up to high speed. Blend for 1 minute total.
- Take your margarita glass, dip the edges in water or lime juice, and roll the rim in margarita salt.
- Pour the margarita into your salt-rimmed glass, garnish with a slice of lime. Enjoy!
The Best Blender for Margaritas
I’ve owned a lot of blenders, but my Vitamix is definitely the best one I’ve owned. This high-speed blender will blend even the toughest of ingredients into pulp.
I prefer using my blender for recipes like this, as it’s much easier to clean the Vitamix. This is definitely one kitchen appliance we use on a daily basis! For smoothies or cocktails, this blender gets the job done.
A Great Frozen Mango Recipe
If you have frozen mangoes, this a great way into use them in a fun cocktail. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can have amazing homemade cocktails in no time.
