Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (300 grams) frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) tequila blanco
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) triple sec or orange liqueur
- 1 to 2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) agave syrup or honey
- 1 cup (120 grams) ice cubes (optional)
- Coarse salt for rimming the glass
- Lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Pour coarse salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of each glass to moisten it, then dip the rim into the salt to coat. Set glasses aside.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice until you have about 1/4 cup (60 ml).
- Combine frozen mango chunks, tequila blanco, lime juice, triple sec, and agave syrup into a blender. Optionally add ice cubes for extra thickness.
- Pulse the blender at medium speed to break up large chunks, then blend on high until smooth and slushy, about 30-60 seconds.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness by adding more agave syrup or lime juice if needed. Blend briefly again if adjusted.
- Pour the slushie into salted glasses and garnish with a lime wedge.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect icy texture.
Notes
If your blender struggles with frozen fruit, let the mango sit out for 5 minutes before blending. Avoid adding too much ice to prevent watering down the flavor. Use fresh lime juice for best taste. For alcohol-free version, omit tequila and triple sec and increase lime juice and agave syrup. Salt rim the glasses carefully to ensure salt sticks without sliding off.
