Tasting Notes

The Blackberry Mango Margarita is a vibrant, fruity fusion of tropical mango and tart blackberry with a bold citrus finish. Tequila blanco forms the clean agave base, while Cointreau and lime juice add zesty brightness. Sweet & sour mix and agave syrup balance the fruitiness of mango nectar, and fresh blackberries give it a juicy, berry-rich depth. Finished with a Tajín rim and lime wheel, this margarita is sweet, tangy, and irresistibly sippable with a subtle spicy kick.

Equipment and Glassware

Use a cocktail shaker, muddler, and jigger for mixing. Serve in a rocks glass with a Tajín rim and fresh ice. A fine mesh strainer helps create a smooth pour.

Ingredients

1.5 oz tequila blanco
1 oz Cointreau
0.5 oz lime juice
1 oz sweet & sour mix
0.5 oz agave syrup
2 oz mango nectar
Handful of blackberries (about 5–6 or more for garnish)
Tajín (for rimming)
Lime wheel (for garnish)

Instructions

Rim the Glass: Rub a lime wedge around the rim of your rocks glass, then dip into Tajín.
Muddle: In the bottom of the prepared glass, muddle the blackberries to release their juice. Add fresh ice on top.
Shake: In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, sweet & sour mix, agave syrup, and mango nectar. Shake well until chilled.
Strain: Strain the mixture over the muddled blackberries and ice.
Garnish: Top with a lime wheel and an extra sprinkle of Tajín if desired.

Pro Tips

For a stronger berry note, add a splash of blackberry liqueur (like Chambord).
Use chilled mango nectar to keep the drink cold and full-flavored.
Freeze blackberries ahead of time and use as flavorful ice cubes.
