Ingredients
Wondering what ingredients you need to whip up a batch of this refreshing virgin mango daiquiri? Grab these key ingredients, and you'll be ready to start!
- Frozen Mango: I like to use already diced, frozen mango--it makes this drink quick and easy.
- Lime Juice: This tangy citrus juice perfectly complements the fruit! Squeeze your own for the best flavor.
- Simple Syrup: This simple blend of sugar and water sweetens the drink. Add only how much you need.
- Rum Extract: This is optional, but does add a little exra depth to the flavor and simulates the addition of rum in a regular daiquiri. Use an alcohol-free extract or leave it out if you prefer.
See recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
Variations
- Fruit: try adding some frozen pineapple chunks or frozen strawberries to change up the flavor.
- Lime Juice: you could try a half-and-half blend of fresh lime juice and fresh lemon juice.
- Simple Syrup: a liquid sweetener such as honey or agave nectar would be a good substitute.
- Rum Extract: feel free to leave this out if you want.

Recipe FAQs
It's made from pureed mangoes, lime juice, simple syrup, and rum extract. It's a fun and fruity drink typically served in hurricane glasses and garnished with a maraschino cherry or fresh strawberry.
There is 73.6 grams of sugar per 15 fl oz. My frozen mangoes weren't very sweet, so I had to add a lot of simple syrup. If yours are sweeter, you won't need to add that much simple syrup.
Expert Tips
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice. The bottled juice doesn't taste as good as freshly squeezed. It's definitely worth the extra time to do it yourself.
- You may need to add a little water while pureeing the mangoes. This is especially true if you're using a less powerful blender.
- Adjust the amount of lime juice and simple syrup to taste. Everyone's frozen fruit will taste different (I used Publix brand), so you'll need to adjust the flavors.
- Blend in crushed ice for a thicker texture. Start with 1 cup, then add another.
- Make it ahead of time. Pour the drink into a freezer-safe pitcher and freeze until needed. Defrost before serving and break up any clumps with a fork.

Notes
- Squeeze your own lime juice for the best flavor.

- Adjust the amount of lime juice and simple syrup to taste. Each fruit will have a different amount of sweetness, so you'll need to adjust accordingly.
- Want a thicker texture? Blend in some crushed ice.

a virgin drink doesn't contain alcohol

You can always use an alcohol free imitation rum extract to simulate the flavor but without alcohol.
