Ingredients
Scale
For the Drink
- 16 oz. Frozen mango
- 12 oz. Mango nectar
- 1 cup Ice
- 1 Lime, juiced
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
For the Glass Rim and Garnish
- 3 tbsp Chamoy sauce
- 2 tbsp Tajín seasoning
- Tamarind candy sticks (tamarind straws)
- Optional: Mango slices or lime slices for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Mango Blend: In a blender, combine the frozen mango, mango nectar, ice, freshly squeezed lime juice, and granulated sugar. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy, forming a mango sorbet-like consistency.
- Rim the Glasses: Dip the rims of your serving glasses into the chamoy sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated. Then, immediately dip the rims into the tajín seasoning to create a flavorful, spicy-sweet crust.
- Add Chamoy Drizzle: Drizzle some chamoy sauce along the inside walls of the prepared glasses to add extra flavor and decorative visual appeal.
- Assemble the Mangonada: Pour the blended mango mixture carefully into the rims-coated glasses. Add a tamarind candy stick (tamarind straw) into each glass for a fun and tangy garnish.
- Optional Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with fresh mango slices or lime wedges. Serve immediately while cold and refreshing.
Notes
- Use frozen mango chunks for best texture and chill without watering down the drink.
- Adjust sugar to taste depending on the sweetness of your mango nectar.
- Chamoy and tajín provide the signature spicy and tangy flavor that balances the sweetness; do not omit unless you prefer a milder drink.
- Serve immediately to maintain the refreshing cold temperature.
- This mocktail can be easily doubled or tripled for parties and family gatherings.
