PASSION MANGO MARGARITA

Mangoes are super-sweet and so damn good for you. They are great for your skin and they can help reduce cholesterol and alkalise your body. Passion fruit are also very high in vitamin C, minerals and fibre. These two are the ideal flavour combo for a bangin’ Margarita. Get involved!

SERVES 2

25ml passion fruit juice · 75ml tequila (I use AquaRiva Blanco)

30ml Cointreau · Juice of ½ lime

100g frozen ripe mango chunks · 25ml agave nectar

Crushed ice · 50g Maldon sea salt

Zest of 1 unwaxed lime · Extra passion fruit halves, to garnish

EQUIPMENT

Strainer, High-speed blender and 2 coupe glasses

Prepare the passion fruit juice by scooping out the flesh from 2-3 large ripe passion fruit. Place the pulp into a strainer and press out all the juice using the back of a spoon. You should end up with 25ml.

Add this to a high-speed blender along with the tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, frozen mango, agave nectar and a small handful of crushed ice. Blend for about 1 minute, or until smooth.

Mix together the sea salt and lime zest and tip onto a small side plate. Wet the rims of the serving glasses with a little lime juice and tip the glasses upside-down onto the salt. Spin the glasses until you have an even rim of lime salt.

Fill the glasses three-quarters full with crushed ice. Pour over the margarita and garnish with half a passion fruit.
