Description

What works about Mango Chilli Margarita is the contrast between familiar cocktail logic and a more individual flavour combination. The recipe combines Tequila, Mango Syrup, lemon, and Chilli Syrup. Each ingredient has a clear job: the base provides structure, the modifiers build flavour, and careful chilling keeps the finish clean.

It is versatile enough for a cocktail night at home, dinner with friends or a round where you want something a little less predictable. Taste before serving and make small adjustments; balance is easier to preserve that way.

Ingredients

  • 50 ml Tequila
  • 20 ml Mango Syrup

Instructions
