About the Spicy Mango Margarita cocktail
Looking for a cocktail that’s both refreshing and bold? The Spicy Mango Margarita delivers a perfect fusion of sweet, tart, and heat, all in one glass. This modern twist on the classic margarita combines juicy mango, zesty lime, and tequila with a fiery jalapeño kick that keeps every sip interesting. The rim of Tajin (a tangy chili-lime seasoning) adds an extra layer of flavor and a beautiful pop of colour that makes it just as stunning to look at as it is to drink.
