Having recently tried a half decent Mango Daiquiri and on the day in question picked up a bottle of Mango Puree, a little bit of experimentation led to my Frozen Jamaican Mango.
While most of the Mango cocktail recipes I’ve seen use light rum, I decided to add a bit more weight to the rum flavours by using a Dark Jamaican Rum. The Pineapple rum flavour is more subtle, but blends well with the mango flavour. Of course the addition of the 150+ Proof Rum float will give this tropical frozen drink a bit of a kick. However, if you are unable to source 150+ Proof Rum, then the Overproof Rum of your choice will suffice as a substitute.
Ingredients
1 1/2 Measures of Dark Jamaican Rum
1 1/2 Measures of Pineapple flavoured Rum
3 Measure of Mango Juice
1/2 Measure of Mango Puree
1/2 Measure of 150+ Proof Rum
Ice
Pineapple Wedge to garnish
Equipment
Blender
Hurricane Glass (Large Cocktail Goblet)
Tall Drinking Straw
Quarter fill the Blender with Ice and pour in the Dark Jamaican Rum, Pineapple flavoured Rum, Mango Juice and Mango Puree.
Blend the ingredients for approx 30 – 45 seconds. Once ready, pour the blended mix into the Hurricane Glass and pour the 150+ Proof Rum on top of the drink as a float. Add the Drinking Straw and Pineapple Wedge to garnish before serving.
