Mango Margaritas

So I’ve been busy…
And not just drinking these delicious margaritasDSC_0435
We’ve had skating competitions… skating

BMX races in PA and NC and all throughout FL…BMX
And sadly only an 8 week summer to fit it all in!
But this is all about these delicious margaritas that we made last weekend.  I have a friend who keeps me in nice supply of fresh herbs, lemons and mangos depending on the season.  Right now we are coming up on the tail end of mango season and she brought me bags full!  I juiced all of the mangoes in my heavy duty juicer.  Some of the juice became popsicles and I made a delicious batch of Mango Frozen Yogurt (which I just polished of without so much as a picture *sigh*).  But with the rest I wanted to make something adult like.  That celebrated the fruit at it’s finest.  Mango Margaritas it was…
Mango Margarita
2 oz Tequila
1 oz limoncello (or triple sec but we like the lemon flavor with the mango)
3 oz of fresh mango juice
2 ounces of water
juice of 1/2 a lime

Mix all ingredients together and serve chilled over ice.  These could be made into frozen margaritas by simply blending with ice but they were delicious like this…

    Looks scrumptious! I need to borrow that heavy duty juicer to take care of all the mangoes I am getting off my tree. Thanks for some mango ideas!

    Limoncello and mangoes--two of my favorite things in the world. I'm writing this one down.

    Cheers!

    Hi Judy,

    I really like your blog and the Mango Margarita looks yummy.

    I live in NYC and just took up cooking and picked it up pretty quickly. I recently started my own blog also.
