Top tip
Fresh mango vs. store bought nectar: If you're able to get fresh mangoes, you can peel and chop them then place them in the freezer over night. If you don't have access to fresh mangoes, frozen mangoes from your freezer section will do!
Tajin vs salt: Classic margaritas use salt on the rim, but with Chamoy mangonadas Tajin is a must! If you don't like tajin, you can opt for a salt rim.
Chill the glasses. This drink tastes best when it is extra cold. If you have the time, chill the margarita glasses in the fridge.
