notes
To make for a crowd (serves 8), you will need 8 mangos (peeled and chopped), 8 jalapeños (remove the seeds to tone down the spice, or just use half the recommended amount), 2 cups tequila, 1 cup triple sec, 1 1/2 cups fresh lime juice, and 3/4 cup simple syrup.
I like to add the mango, jalapeño, and lime juice to a blender and blend it all together (a food processor works too). Strain into a pitcher and stir in tequila, triple sec, and simple syrup. Chill until ready to serve and serve over ice.
