Mango Margarita with Chile Salt and Lime
by Foodie Crush
*I made these differently than the recipe, but either way makes a delicous margarita. I pureed frozen mango with some water and mixed it with a shot of tequila and lime juice. I coated the rim of the glasses with Tajin (chile lime salt). Salud!
