So fresh!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

An employee gave me a case of mangos, I enjoy a good drink, and now I've matched those up! I prepared batch after batch,... measured it out into freezer baggies and now have a well stocked freezer! I increased the tequila to 6 ounces and used 3 ounces of cointreau. Smooth, fresh and delicious. Excellent Michael!Read more

Yummy Margaritas!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This reccipe is great. I prepaared the mango mix a few hours ahead and just kept it chilled until it was time to make the... drinks. Also, I used 1/2 cup Splenda instead of sugar - it still tasted wonderful.Read more
