How to Make a Spicy Mango Margarita Float!

Sharing is caring!

This Spicy Mango Margarita Float is summer in a glass—sweet, smoky, citrusy, and just the right amount of heat. Made with mango Tajín sorbet, tequila, chile liqueur (Ancho Reyes), and a splash of lime, it’s the kind of cocktail that is perfect for backyard BBWs and beach days! ☀️🌶️🍹

Ingredients

• 1 scoop mango Tajín sorbet
• 1.5 oz Ancho Reyes (if you don’t want spicy you can use triple sec)
• 1 oz tequila (blanco)
• 0.75 oz fresh lime juice
• 0.5 oz agave syrup (optional, if you want it sweeter)
• Splash of Topo Chico or mango soda
• Tajín + lime wedge for rim

Directions

1. Rim a glass with lime juice and Tajín.
2. In a shaker, combine Ancho Reyes, tequila, lime juice, and agave with ice. Shake well and pour into the glass.
3. Add a scoop of mango Tajín sorbet. Top with a splash of Topo Chico or mango soda. Enjoy!

Perfect Presentation Platters

Glasses: We love these colorful coupe glasses! They are on sale for $50 for a set of six.

Additional Coupe Glasses: There are so many great deals on coupe glasses, like these with a Gold Rim from World Market: for $7 each or this Target 4-Pack for $25.

Checkered Serving Boards: I used my Mackenzie-Childs check-chop board for both function and decor, which also comes in large. These are definitely investment pieces, but you can also check out a $30 version from Amazon or this version from Temu for under $25!

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Can I Prep This Spicy Margarita in Advance?

The easiest way to save time with this recipe is by rimming the glasses with lime juice and Tajín. Everything else is best being made as you’re ready to serve.

Storing Leftovers

Since these Spicy Margarita Floats are made 1-2 at a time as needed, you shouldn’t have many leftovers. With cocktails, it’s best to pour out any leftovers.
