Instructions
Make the Margaritas:
Add 2 cups ice, 3 cups frozen mango chunks, ¼ cup fresh lime juice, 8 oz pure agave tequila, and 2 tablespoons agave nectar to a high-powered blender.
Blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until completely smooth and slushy. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness. Add more agave for sweetness or more lime juice for tartness. Blend again briefly to combine.
Prepare the Glasses:
Spread kosher salt on a small plate in an even layer.
Run a lime wedge around the rim of each margarita glass to moisten it. Turn the glass upside down and dip the moistened rim into the salt, rotating to coat evenly. For a half-rim, only dip half the glass into the salt.
Pour the frozen margaritas into the prepared glasses and serve immediately with lime wedges for garnish.
Notes
100% Agave Tequila: Make sure your tequila label says "100% agave" for the best flavor and to ensure it's gluten-free. If it doesn't say "100% agave," you're getting mixto tequila, which contains a mixture of agave and other sugars.
Frozen Mango: Using frozen mango creates the perfect slushy texture. If using fresh mango, freeze the chunks for a few hours first.
Blender Power: A high-powered blender works best. If your blender struggles, let frozen mango soften at room temperature for 5 minutes before blending.
Scaling: This recipe easily doubles or triples for parties.
