Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups (600g) frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup (240ml) tequila blanco
- ½ cup (120ml) fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup (60ml) orange juice
- ¼ cup (60ml) simple syrup
- 2 cups (480ml) ice cubes
- Coarse salt (for rimming glasses, optional)
- Lime wedges (for garnish)
Instructions
- Juice the limes until you have about ½ cup (120ml) of fresh lime juice. Then juice ¼ cup (60ml) of orange juice. Strain if you prefer pulp-free drinks.
- Pour some coarse salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rims of your glasses, then dip them into the salt to coat. Set aside (optional).
- In your blender, combine 4 cups (600g) frozen mango chunks, 1 cup (240ml) tequila blanco, lime juice, orange juice, and ¼ cup (60ml) simple syrup. Blend on high until smooth but thick—about 1-2 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
- Add 2 cups (480ml) ice cubes to the blender. Pulse until the mixture reaches your desired slushie consistency. Avoid overblending to prevent watery texture (about 1 minute).
- Pour the mango margarita slushie into your prepared pitcher. Stir gently and taste. Adjust sweetness by adding more simple syrup if desired.
- Serve immediately by pouring into salted-rim glasses, garnish with lime wedges. If not serving right away, keep the pitcher in the fridge and stir gently before pouring.
Notes
Let frozen mango chunks thaw slightly for 5 minutes if blender struggles. Avoid overblending to keep thick slushie texture. Chill pitcher and glasses before serving to keep drink cold longer. Adjust sweetness after blending to taste. For a boozier drink, add an extra ¼ cup tequila but note it may thin the texture.
