Especially on a rainy day.

 

Coconut Mango and Mint Margaritas

2 c. frozen mango cubes
1 c. coconut water with pulp
2-3 oz. blanco tequila
4 large mint leaves
1 oz. lime juice

Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse away.

Serve.

2014-05-26 18.07.23The frozen mangoes gives this concoction a slight smoothie consistency, albeit an adult smoothie.

      It’s really refreshing. Everything in moderation!

    Though not a cocktail drinker, I am more than happy to give this a go as it has my favourite frozen mangoes and coconut!

      Just make a mocktail, Angie, and enjoy!

    Oh my – I DO so love a nice smoothie ๐Ÿ˜‰ I’m not usually a fan of frozen margaritas, but I might make an exception for this one!

      And I think is a great smoothie base with the mint, coconut, and mango.

    Geez, the least you could have done was invite me over for drinks. That looks awesome.

    Imperfect margarita glasses! What a great excuse! ๐Ÿ˜‰ These look terrific — thanks.

      We actually have some that are more cockeyed than this one. It was a good excuse though, wasn’t it?

    I love this! Great picture. I love sitting on my deck drinking margaritas of late. Albeit last eve I put a wee bit too much tequila in my drink. I KNEW I should have measured. Ha!
