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 instead of puree; the cocktail will be thinner.

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

Grand Marnier is an orange-flavored liqueur that gives this delicious summer cocktail 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. Lime juice can be replaced with lemon juice.

If your mangoes are not sweet enough, add a little sugar syrup to sweeten the mango martini cocktail.

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.

I have used sea salt for rimming the martini glasses 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.
