Mangonada

A Mangonada is a frozen Mexican drink recipe also known as a Chamoyada or even its common variants such as the Diablito or Vampiro. It’s spicy, salty, frozen, and delicious. The names and preparation methods may differ a bit, but the basic ingredients are mango, chamoy sauce, and Tajin.

Some recipes call for mango sorbet, others blend fresh mango with ice cubes or just use frozen mango. Others like to alternate layers of the mango sorbet/slushy with fresh pieces of mango. The choice is yours so have fun and experiment.

The sweetness of course comes from the mangos. The spiciness comes from the Tajin, the tartness comes from lime juice, and the chamoy sauce provides a sweet, spicy, tart, and a touch of savory.
