Pro Tips for Perfection
Use Frozen Mango Chunks: This is the most important secret to a great frozen daiquiri. Using pre-frozen fruit provides all the chilling and texture needed without diluting the drink with plain ice. It results in a much richer, creamier, and more flavorful cocktail.
Adjust Sweetness: The natural sweetness of mangoes can vary greatly. After blending, give your daiquiri a quick taste. If your mango was very ripe, you might not need much simple syrup. If it's a bit tart, feel free to add a little more syrup to reach the perfect balance.
