Best Mangonada Recipe (Chamoyada, Chamango)
This Mangonada recipe (also known as Chamoyada or Chamango) is a sweet, frozen mango drink with a tangy, spicy swirl of chamoy, and a sprinkling of chile-lime seasoning.
Ingredients
- ½ cup chamoy divided
- ⅓ cup tajin chili lime seasoning
- 16 oz mango chunks frozen
- 1 cup mango nectar or juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup ice
- 1 fresh mango cut into small chunks for topping
- 2 Tamarind candy straws optional
Instructions
- Pour a little chamoy and tajin into two small saucers. Dip the rims of the glasses first into the chamoy and then into the tajin.
- In a blender, combine the frozen mango chunks, mango nectar or juice, lime juice, sugar, and ice. Blend until smooth. It will have the consistency between a smoothie and a sorbet.
- Swirl some chamoy on the insides of two 16oz glasses.
- Pour the mango mixture into the glasses.
- Top with chopped mango, a drizzle of chamoy, and a sprinkle of tajin.
- Serve with a tamarind straw.
Notes
- Use ripe mangoes for the sweetest mango flavor.
- Fresh mangoes or frozen mango chunks can be used for the mango smoothie. If using fresh mango, cut into chunks and freeze before blending for an icy slushie.
- Have your glasses rimmed and mango topping chopped and ready before blending so the drink doesn’t melt.
- For even more tangy flavor, add a layer or two of chamoy in the middle of the drink as you pour in the mango mixture.
