    About Mango Martini

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

    Mango martini has become my favorite cocktail for summer barbeque parties, get-togethers or to sip through the evening while chilling at home. It is sweet, treat, fruity, and very refreshing.

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

    This recipe is vegan and gluten-free, and you can easily scale it as per your needs.

    Ingredients

    mango martini ingredients.

    I love this drink because it is 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; check it out.

    I 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 readily available, make a puree using frozen mangoes or canned mango pulp.

    You can also use mango juice or mango nectar in place of puree; the cocktail will be thinner in this case.

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

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

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

    If your mangoes are not sweet enough, add 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, dip the rim of the glass in it, and then invert it on a plate filled with salt. Shake the glass gently to remove any excess salt.
    • Alternatively, you could 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 salt and red chili mix also works great for rimming 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
    • 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.

    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 completely dissolves. Cool, then store in an airtight container, in the fridge, for up to 4 weeks.

    Make this cocktail ahead of time for parties. Freeze it before use, then blend again until it is 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.

      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’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!
