    About This Recipe

    Mango Martini is an easy and quick drink that you can fix in just 5 minutes. This light and trendy drink is made using just 4 ingredients – vodka, Grand Marnier, mango puree, and lime juice.

    Mango martini has become my super favorite cocktail to serve for summer barbeque parties, get-togethers or just to sip through the evening while chilling at home.

    This refreshing drink is quite popular in Thai and Asian restaurants and makes a perfect beverage to accompany your Thai/Asian meals too.

    Ingredients

    mango martini ingredients.

    I love this drink because it is so simple and needs just 4 ingredients – vodka, Grand Marnier, mango puree, and lime juice.

    Mango Puree – Make fresh mango puree for the best result. I have a detailed post on how to make mango puree, so you can check it out as well.

    I personally like to use Indian mangoes like Alphonso mango or Kesar mangoes or others like Champagne mangoes or Florida mangoes, as they are very sweet and juicy. You can use any ripe and sweet mango that you prefer.

    If fresh mangoes are not easily available to you, then make a puree using frozen mangoes or use canned mango pulp.

    Vodka & Grand Marnier – You can use any unflavoured vodka of your choice.

    Grand Marnier is an orange-flavored liqueur that gives this drink a very refreshing taste. You can use other orange-flavored liqueurs like Triple sec or Cointreau in place of Grand Marnier.

    Lime Juice – Use freshly squeezed lime juice to add a nice tangy touch to this sweet drink.

    If your mangoes are not sweet enough, you can also add in a little sugar syrup to sweeten the drink.

    How To Rim The Martini Glass

    Follow these easy steps to get a tropical bar like rim on the Martini glass:

    • Take some water on a shallow plate and dip the rim of the glass in it and then invert the glass on a plate filled with salt. Shake the glass gently to remove any excess salt.
    • Alternatively, you could also rub a lemon wedge on the rim and then invert the glass on a plate filled with salt.
    Salt added to a plate.
    Lime squeezing on the rim of a martini glass.
    Glass pressed on the salt.
    Rimmed glass.

    I have used sea salt for rimming the glass as it goes well with mangoes. However, you may suit yourself and use any other salt.

    A mix of salt and red chili also works great for rimming the cocktail glasses.

    How To Make Mango Martini

    Pour 1.5 ounces (45 ml) vodka, 1.5 ounces (45 ml) Grand Marnier, 1-ounce (30 ml) mango puree, and 1-ounce (30 ml) lime juice into a cocktail shaker.

    Vodka, grand marnier, lime juice and mango puree added to a cocktail shaker.

    Fill the shaker with crushed ice and shake well for 30 seconds.

    Lots of crushed ice added to the shaker.
    Shaking the shaker.

    Strain the mix into the rimmed glass.

    Serve immediately.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How to make sugar syrup?

    Add 1 cup water and 1 cup granulated sugar to a saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved. Cool then store in an airtight container, in the fridge, for up to 4 weeks.

    Pro Tips By Neha

    Add a little sugar syrup if you like your drinks on the sweeter side.

    You can increase or decrease the amount of lime juice according to your taste preference.

    Make this cocktail ahead of time for parties. Freeze it before use and then blend once again in a blender until it is slushy.

    If mangoes are not in season, you can use canned mango puree or mango juice to make this drink.

    Add a little bit of pineapple juice to make pineapple mango martini.

    You can make a frozen version of this martini by freezing the mango pieces or pulp and then blending all the ingredients together in a blender until it becomes slushy.

      What a great way to showcase mango. This drink sounds delicious. I think it would be great for a late brunch….but really poolside in the summer would be perfect.

      I cut my very first mango today! Well- correction- I SUCCESSFULLY cut my very first mango today. There’s been plenty of mangled mangoes that got thrown over the hill for the deer to eat. But now I feel so empowered, that I need to go make this drink. YUM

      I love mango in the summer! This sounds like such a delicious cocktail and you mentioning having it at a Thai restaurant makes me think that it would be perfect with a nice shrimp roll or pad thai. So delicious!

      What a great way to toast mango season! The cocktail is beautiful but aside from the eye appeal, I bet the taste is amazing. I’m definitely going to make this great looking drink especially with that squeeze of lime cutting the sweetness of the mango.

      I love a good mango drink! I wish I knew about this earlier so I could’ve made this over the wedding – we had two weddings and this would’ve been a refreshing change from all the rum and coke our tables had!

      I’m with you. Fruit plus alcohol FTW. They go together so nicely – probably unsurprising given how many fruits will turn into alcohol with a little bit of cajoling. I love the flavours you’re working with here, and I’m always on board with all-things-mango. Nicely done!
