Why you’ll love this mango margarita mocktail

  • It’s easy to make. It couldn’t be easier! Just throw everything in a blender and go! No fancy syrups or foams.
  • Both adults and kids will love it. I love being able to share this with my 3-year-old.

The Ingredients You’ll Need For the Frozen Mango Margarita Mocktail

  • Orange juice. This is the base of the mocktail. There are lots of good quality orange juices out there, or you can make your own at home.
  • Lime juice. You only need 1/4 cup of lime juice, so you can either make this at home, or buy a good quality lime juice from the store.
  • Honey. The drink is already fairly sweet with the honey, but the honey cuts through the sourness of the lime and adds more of that traditional margarita flavor.
  • Frozen Mango. This adds amazing flavor and thickens the drink more. You can experiment with different fruit here with something like peaches, or even strawberries.
  • Salt. I like to use coarse salt or flakey salt to salt the rim of the glasses.

How to make Frozen Mango Margarita Mocktail

  • Step one. Prep the rims of the glasses.

  • Step two. Blend the mocktail in a blender until smooth.

  • Step three. Serve the mocktail in the glasses and enjoy!

Can you make this recipe ahead of time?

It’s most definitely better fresh! If you make it ahead of time and store it in the fridge, the ice and mango will melt, creating a liquid rather than a frozen slushy type of texture.

Can you add alcohol?

If you do drink and want to add some alcohol to this recipe, a shot of tequila would be the best choice!
