Smoothie Ingredients
- 10 ounces frozen mango (approximately 2 cups)
- 12 ounces mango nectar or juice
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
Glass Preparation & Toppings
- ½ cup chamoy sauce
- ¼ cup tamarind chamoy rim paste
- Tajín seasoning, to taste
- Fresh mango, diced, for topping
- 4 tamarindo straws for serving
Instructions
- Blend Mango Smoothie: Add frozen mango, mango nectar, and fresh lime juice into a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more mango nectar or water until you reach the desired consistency.
- Adjust Flavor: Taste the smoothie and add sugar if it’s too tart; usually, extra sugar is not necessary. You can also add a bit more lime juice if you prefer a tangier flavor.
- Prepare Glass Rim: Dip the rim of each glass into the tamarind chamoy rim paste, then coat it evenly with Tajín seasoning to create a flavorful and spicy border.
- Add Chamoy Base: Pour a small amount of chamoy sauce into the bottom of each prepared glass to start layering the flavors.
- Layer Smoothie and Chamoy: Alternately pour mango smoothie and chamoy sauce into the glass, layering until the glass is filled. This creates a beautiful swirl and mixes sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors with every sip.
- Garnish and Serve: Top each serving with fresh diced mango and a sprinkle of Tajín seasoning. Serve with a tamarindo straw to sip and enjoy the full tangy and spicy mango experience.
Notes
- Frozen mango can be substituted with fresh mango chunks and ice cubes for a fresher smoothie.
- If mango nectar is unavailable, replace with pure mango juice or a combination of mango juice and water.
- Adjust the amount of chamoy and Tajín seasoning to suit your spice tolerance.
- For a cold and refreshing drink, chill glasses before serving.
- Can be made vegan by ensuring chamoy and tamarind pastes are vegan-friendly.
