Sweet mango and smoky Mezcal is a match made in heaven. This cocktail will ignite your taste buds! The rim of the glass is coated in a coarse chili sea salt, and the cocktail is a mixture of fresh lime juice, mango nectar, smoky Mezcal, and a splash of triple sec.
I am currently obsessed with Mezcal. It tastes smoky, earthy, and pairs so nicely with sweet fruit. I am actually kinda obsessed with all things smoky, smoked paprika, smoked cheese, smoked meat… I love it! This mezcal mango margarita is definitely what I will have this Cinco de Mayo!
If you love this cocktail recipe, you must try my aperol paloma, hot honey peach margarita, aperol margarita!
