TIP! Fresh mango can be replaced with 220g frozen mango. Or, for a shortcut, replace mango with mango nectar. We used a good quality cordial in this recipe.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons sea salt flakes

1 lemon wedge

1 large mango (480g), peeled and chopped

1/3 cup white Tequila

1/3 cup orange-flavoured liqueur

1/3 cup lemon juice cordial

1/3 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice

3 cups ice cubes

Lemon wedges, to serve (optional)

Method

Spread salt over a saucer. Run lemon wedge around the rim of four glasses (1 cup-capacity). Dip rims into salt to coat.
Just before serving, place mango, Tequila, liqueur, cordial, juice and ice in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Pour into glasses. Serve with lemon.
