Mango jalapeno margaritas are delicious whether paired with your favorite Mexican Meal or simply enjoyed as a cool cocktail treat on a hot summer day. It’s the perfect fruity and tropical cocktail recipe that needs to be on your menu this summertime. Whether you want to make it extra spicy or add no spice at all, it tastes so fresh, real and delicious either way.

INGREDIENTS NOTES

I love that this margarita has so many fresh and real ingredients. It makes the cocktail more appealing, here’s how it goes :

Tequila – we used Sierra golden Tequila, but you can use any brand of your choice.

Mangoes – you can also substitute this with pineapple, if you want the same tropical, sweet flavor.

Jalapenos – of course! For that spice.

Tajin Lime Chili Salt – this is the secret ingredient that makes the cocktail even better. You will need this to rim the glass. You can also use a homemade chili powder or chili salt.

Lime Juice – fresh lime juice would be the best option.

Orange Liqueur – you can also skip it and add orange juice.

Lime Wedges – for garnishing.

HOW TO MAKE MANGO JALAPENO MARGARITA

• Rim a cocktail glass with lime and dip in Tajin seasoning (or any chili salt blend), set aside.
• In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add a few slices of jalapeño and a few chunks of fresh mango. Muddle with the back of a wooden spoon or cocktail muddler. (You can also choose blender method by adding all ingredients into the blender and blend it up).
• Add in tequila, lime juice, mango juice and shake very well.
• Taste and add additional lime juice, jalapenos, mangoes, ice, tequila, orange liqueur – as desired/needed.
• Pour into prepared cocktail glass filled with crushed ice.
• For The Garnish – Garnish with a skewer of mango cube, jalapeño piece and a wheel of lime.

PRO TIPS TO MASTER THIS RECIPE

• If you don’t have mangoes, you can choose pineapples for that tropical vibe. Use the same blender method or muddling the pineapple in a cocktail shaker.
• If you like spicy margarita, but your friends want a straight mango margarita, it is easy to adjust the spice level by just blending all ingredients, except the jalapenos. Pour some of the margarita mixture into the number of glasses you need, and then add the number of jalapenos for the level of spice you prefer. Or ditch them altogether. The possibilities are endless.
• As the Tajin glass rim is the secret step you absolutely need to take, you must think of the ways how to add that salt rim for your glasses. You can either make your own blend of chili powder and salt or you can just rim your glass with coarse rock salt.
