Frozen Mango Margaritas

Dustin and I like our margaritas traditional, on-the-rocks. But sometimes when it's warm outside a nice frozen margarita really hits the spot. Personally I can't decide if I like mango or strawberry blended in. I guess it depends on my mood. This particular evening we made frozen mango margaritas because we had a bag of frozen mangos in the fridge which gives these margaritas their nice texture without adding too much ice, which waters down the flavor.

Frozen Mango Margaritas

(Makes 2)

• 1.5 ounces agave syrup
• 2 limes, juiced
• 3 ounces tequila
• 1.5 ounces orange liqueur
• 1 cup frozen mangos
• 1 cup crushed ice
• salt
• lime wedge (for garnish)

Run a used lime wedge around the edge of a margarita glass and salt the rim. Combine the agave syrup, lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, mangos, and ice in a blender (my Vitamix works quite well for this) until your desired slushy consistency is reached. Pour into salt-rimmed glass and enjoy on a hot, hot day for a refreshing treat.
