INGREDIENTS
Salt Rim
- 2-3 Tablespoons sea salt
- 1-2 lime wedges
- Make it spicy: 1 teaspoon chili powder
Mango Margarita On the Rocks
- 1/ 2 cup orange juice (2 medium oranges)
- 1/4 cup lime juice (2 medium limes)
- 1/2 cup tequila blanco (silver tequila)
- 3 tablespoons orange liqueur Triple Sec, Cointreau, or Grand Marnier
- 3 tablespoons agave
- 1 cup 100% mango juice see notes if you can't find it
- Make it spicy: 1 small circular slice of jalapeño
Frozen Mango Margarita
- 3 1/2 cups ice plus more if needed

- 1/4 cup lime juice (2 medium limes)
- 1/2 cup silver tequila
- 3 tablespoons Triple Sec
- 3 tablespoons agave
- Make it spicy: 1 small circular slice of jalapeño
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add enough sea salt to a shallow bowl or dish to just fill the bottom. Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glasses and dip it into the salt and set aside.
On the Rocks
- Add all of the ingredients to a cocktail shaker or a large mason jar with a lid. Shake until well until combined, about 15-20 seconds. To make it spicy, add 1-2 slices of jalapeño. The longer you shake it, the spicier it will be.
- Add ice to the prepared glasses and serve margaritas immediately. See notes for making them in advance.
Frozen Mango Margaritas
- Add all of the ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend on high for 1-2 minutes until no chunks remain and the mixture is smooth. Add more ice if you want it thicker. For spicy mango margaritas, add 1-2 slices of jalapeño to the blender with the rest of the ingredients.
- Pour them into the prepared glasses and serve right away.

Notes
*Nutrition facts are based on the margaritas on the rocks
Serve it straight up: add ice to the cocktail shaker and serve chilled without ice.
If you can't find 100% mango juice: you can use a mango juice blend (like orange mango) or you can blend 3/4 cup of fresh chopped mango with 1 cup of water to create a pure.
Make it in advance: Add all of the ingredients to the shake rand mix well and store in the fridge for up to 1 day. Shake before serving over ice. For frozen, combine all of the ingredients but the frozen mango and ice to a jar. Add the jar, frozen mangos and ice the blender when ready to serve.
