Description
A vibrant, frozen mango‑slushy drink layered with tangy lime, savory‑sweet chamoy, and chile‑lime seasoning. Also known as a Mangonada — a refreshingly bold treat combining sweet, tart and spicy flavors.
Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup mango nectar or mango juice
- 1 to 1½ cups ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- ½ cup chamoy sauce (plus extra for rimming and layering)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons chile‑lime seasoning (such as Tajín)
- Optional: ½ cup fresh mango pieces for topping
- Optional: tamarind candy straw
Instructions
- In a blender, combine frozen mango chunks, mango nectar (or juice), ice cubes and lime juice; blend until thick and smooth.
- Prepare glasses: dip rims into chamoy then into chile‑lime seasoning so they are evenly coated.
- Drizzle chamoy inside the bottom of each glass.
- Pour in half of the mango blend, then add another drizzle of chamoy.
- Add the remaining mango mixture and finish with fresh mango pieces and a sprinkling of chile‑lime seasoning.
- Insert a tamarind candy straw if using, and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you want it sweeter, add a little sugar or agave before blending.
- For a thicker texture, increase the amount of frozen mango or add extra ice.
- For extra tartness, add more lime juice.
- Sprinkle extra chile‑lime seasoning between layers for more spice.
- Use water or diluted juice instead of full mango nectar if you prefer less sweetness.
