Ingredients:
- 2 ounces Blanco tequila
- 1 ounce mango puree (1 ripe mango, frozen mango chunks or Mango Reàl puree)
- 1 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1/2 ounce triple sec
- 1/4-1/2 ounce simple syrup **see note below**
- splash of soda water (optional)
Instruction:
- If making your own mango puree, slice the mango around the seed and remove the skin. Trim around the seed as best you can to get as much flesh as possible. Mangoes should be ripe and slightly malleable. Blend until smooth and creamy. One mango makes roughly 4 ounces of puree.
- For the salted rim, take a lime or mango wedge and coat the rim of a margarita glass or double old-fashioned glass. Dip in margarita salt, rotating until coated.
- Combine all ingredients (except soda water) in a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously and pour all contents into a double old-fashioned glass. Top with a splash of soda water and garnish with a lime wheel.

FAQ
Why do you need triple sec for margaritas?
Orange liqueur (often Cointreau or another triple sec) typically brings sweetness to this drink, balancing the tart lime and tequila. The trouble is, that liqueur can mask the flavor of great tequila—and sometimes we really want to taste the tequila.
What is the 321 margarita rule?
An easy way to remember how to mix a classic margarita is to memorize the ratio 3-2-1: three parts tequila, two parts good triple sec (like Luxardo Triplum, Cointreau, or Combier), and one part lime juice.
How much alcohol is in a mango margarita?
19.97% alc./vol. (39.94° proof) 21 grams of pure alcohol.
What is the best mix for margarita?
