Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico - Summertime is the perfect time to relax on the beach and sip on something sweet, smooth, fruity, and refreshing. One of the advantages of living in Puerto Vallarta is that there's never a shortage of tropical cocktails at Banderas Bay's beachfront restaurants and bars.
For a tropical take on a classic Mexican cocktail, try Si Señor Beach Restaurant's recipe for a tangy Frozen Mango Margarita. This drink is fruity, and perfect for a hot summer afternoon in Puerto Vallarta.
Here, fresh mango is mixed into a traditional Margarita mixture of tequila, lime juice and orange liqueur. The mango is the most dominant flavor, but the tequila doesn’t get lost. The tart lime juice helps bring out the drink’s fruity flavor and keeps it from tasting too sweet. It’s equal parts sweet and tart, cool and refreshing, potent and oh-so drinkable.
Of course, the best thing about tropical cocktails is enjoying them with friends, so use this recipe to blend up a batch of Si Señor's Mango Margaritas at your next 'grownups only' fiesta and share this frozen treat with friends and family.
