Tips
- Choose Ripe Mangoes: Select mangoes that are slightly soft when pressed, ensuring maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Chill Your Glasses: For an extra refreshing experience, pop your serving glasses in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Fresh Lime Juice Matters: Always use freshly squeezed lime juice instead of bottled for the brightest, most authentic taste.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste your blend and customize by adding a touch of agave syrup or simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter cocktail.
- Experiment with Garnishes: Try rimming your glasses with tajín or salt for an extra flavor dimension.
- Smooth Blending: Blend in short pulses first to break down the mango, then blend continuously for a silky-smooth texture.
