The drink is then served with a straw that's wrapped in tamarind paste and chili ... this delicious beverage's origin is that it came from the streets of Mexico.
Mangonada popsicles grew popular in the US after Mexican fruit popsicle stores started to sell them.
- Mango: Frozen mango chunks or 2 ripe mangoes
- Nectar: Mango nectar is what I prefer, but fresh-squeezed orange juice can replace nectar.
- Sugar: Granulated sugar
- Lime juice: Key lime or regular lime juice
- Chamoy: Chamoy is a condiment from Mexico that is typically served as a dip for fresh fruit. It is made with fruit, such as apricot, mango or plum, chiles, and lime juice, and is bottled and sold in varying degrees of spiciness. Chamoy can be bought in most grocery stores in the Hispanic aisle, or you can order it online like I did. Order Chamoy here
- Tajin: Tajin seasoning is a balance of salty, citrus, and mildly spicy flavors.
