Method
 

Make the Mango Purée
  1. Blend mango, hot honey, and chili powder until smooth. If too thick, add a splash of water or lime juice.
  2. Rim the Glass: Run a lime wedge around the rim and dip it into Tajín.
Mix the Margarita:
  1. For frozen: Blend tequila, lime juice, Cointreau, mango purée, and ice until smooth.
  2. For shaken: Shake everything with ice, then strain into a Tajín-rimmed glass over fresh ice.
  3. Garnish & Serve: Drizzle hot honey inside the glass. Rinse and deseed the árbol pepper before adding for a milder spice, or leave the seeds in for extra heat. Garnish with a lime wedge.

Notes

Tips

  • Make extra puree and keep it cold for another round later.
  • If the puree’s too dense, loosen it with a splash of lime juice.
  • Crank up the heat with more chili or honey if you like it bold.
