The Hot Honey Spicy Mango Margarita is a refreshing and vibrant cocktail that combines the sweetness of ripe mangoes with a spicy kick from hot honey and chili lime seasoning. This drink harmonizes tequila, lime, and Cointreau with homemade mango puree, delivering a perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors for a tropical twist on the classic margarita.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Mango Puree

  • 10 ounces mango chunks
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

For the Margarita

  • 1 1/2 ounces tequila
  • 1 ounce lime juice
  • 3/4 ounce Cointreau
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons mango puree
  • 1 tablespoon hot honey
  • Lime wedges, for garnish
  • Chili lime seasoning, for rimming and garnish
  • Mango chunks, for garnish
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. Make the Mango Puree: In a blender, combine the mango chunks, water, and sugar. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, forming a sweet and fruity mango puree that will be the base of your margarita.
  2. Prepare the Glass Rim: Pour a generous amount of chili lime seasoning onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge all around the rim of your glass to moisten it, then invert the glass and gently turn it over the chili lime seasoning to coat the rim evenly with the spicy seasoning.
  3. Fill the Glass: Carefully fill the rimmed glass with ice to chill and prepare it for the cocktail.
  4. Mix the Margarita: In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, fresh lime juice, Cointreau, freshly made mango puree, and hot honey. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10 to 20 seconds to thoroughly mix and chill the ingredients.
  5. Strain and Serve: Strain the margarita mixture into the prepared chilled glass. This ensures a smooth cocktail free from ice shards or pulp.
  6. Garnish: Garnish the drink with a lime wedge and additional mango chunks lightly coated in chili lime seasoning for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of hot honey depending on how spicy you want your margarita.
  • If fresh mangoes are not available, you can use frozen mango chunks that are thawed before blending.
  • For a stronger mango flavor, add more mango puree to taste.
  • To make the drink less sweet, reduce the sugar or hot honey proportionally.
  • Use good quality tequila and fresh lime juice for the best cocktail experience.
