- .75 ounce agave nectar
- ice
Instructions
- Optional: salt the rim of an old fashioned glass if desired.
- Put the mango into the cocktail shaker and muddle.
- Add the tequila, lime juice and agave nectar along with a handful of ice. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15 seconds.

Notes
Use ripe mangoes or they will not add much flavor to the margarita.
Taste the margarita before straining and add another ¼ ounce of agave nectar if it isn't sweet enough.
If the mangoes are really ripe and muddling turns into a puree it may be necessary to pass through a fine mesh sieve. Press on the pulpy mango to squeeze out the liquid cocktail ingredients.
