Print Recipe

A bold and refreshing mango habanero margarita featuring a tangy chamoy and Tajin rim, perfect for summer parties and those who love a sweet and spicy kick.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh mango chunks (ripe, peeled, and pitted; frozen works in a pinch)
  • 1 small habanero pepper, seeded and finely chopped (adjust based on heat preference)
  • 2 oz (60 ml) tequila blanco
  • 1 oz (30 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 oz (15 ml) agave syrup (can substitute honey)
  • Chamoy sauce for rimming the glass
  • Tajin seasoning for the rim
  • Ice cubes
  • Optional garnishes: lime wheel, mango slice, small habanero slice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rim: Pour about 2 tablespoons of chamoy sauce onto a small plate. On another plate, spread a generous layer of Tajin seasoning. Dip the rim of your glass first into the chamoy, then immediately into the Tajin. Set aside to dry a bit while you make the drink. (Optional: chill the glass in the freezer beforehand.)
  2. Blend mango and habanero: Add 1 cup of fresh mango chunks and the finely chopped habanero pepper to your blender. Pulse until smooth. Adjust habanero amount for desired heat.
  3. Add liquids: Pour in 2 oz tequila blanco, 1 oz fresh lime juice, and 1/2 oz agave syrup. Add about 1 cup of ice cubes to the blender.
  4. Blend until smooth: Blend on high for about 30 seconds or until the mixture is silky and the ice is crushed evenly. The drink should be cold and slightly thick but still pourable.
  5. Taste and adjust: Add more agave syrup for sweetness or more lime juice for extra zing if desired.
  6. Pour and garnish: Carefully pour the margarita into the prepared glass. Garnish with a lime wheel, mango slice, or a small habanero slice.

Notes

For less spice, reduce habanero or substitute with jalapeño. Use frozen mango if fresh is unavailable. Chill glass before rimming to keep chamoy & Tajin intact longer. Blend ice directly for best frozen texture. Rim the glass just before serving to keep rim crisp.
