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.
