Master of Mixes Mango Margarita Mix 1.75L

Master of Mixes Mango Margarita Mix 1.75L is a non-alcoholic, ready-to-pour cocktail mixer made with Alphonso mango puree and Persian lime juice in a large-format 1.75-liter bottle. What separates this mixer from grocery-store competitors is the sourcing: Master of Mixes uses premium Alphonso mangoes from a single growing region in India, yielding a noticeably more authentic tropical character than synthetic-flavored alternatives.

Quick Facts: ABV: 0% (Non-Alcoholic Mixer)  |  Origin: Louisville, Kentucky, USA  |  Style: Mango Margarita Cocktail Mixer  |  Producer: Master of Mixes (Est. 1978)

Production & Heritage

Master of Mixes was founded in 1978 in Louisville, Kentucky, and has built its reputation on sourcing fruit from premier growing regions worldwide rather than relying on artificial flavorings. For this expression, the company sources Alphonso mangoes — widely regarded as the most aromatic and flavorful mango cultivar — from a specific region in India, then blends the puree with Persian lime juice, cane sugar, and natural sweeteners. Production follows a small-batch, handcrafted approach; the ingredient list is straightforward: water, sugar, 13% mango puree, 8.9% lime juice from concentrate, xanthan gum as a thickener, natural flavoring, and minimal preservatives.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe, fragrant mango dominates immediately, followed by a bright squeeze of fresh lime zest. There is a subtle sweetness underneath, reminiscent of tropical fruit nectar without any artificial candy-like notes.

Taste: The entry is sweet and creamy with concentrated mango flavor that reads as genuine fruit rather than syrup. Mid-palate, Persian lime juice pushes through with tart acidity, balancing the sweetness and adding structure. The overall impression is tropical, sweet-tart, and smooth in texture thanks to the xanthan gum body.

Finish: Medium length with lingering mango sweetness and a clean citrus tang. The finish avoids the cloying, overly sugary aftertaste common in mass-market mixer brands.

How to Drink Mango Margarita Mix

The simplest serve is to combine the mix with blanco tequila and ice — blended or on the rocks — at a ratio of roughly three parts mixer to one part spirit, adjusting to taste. The 1.75L format is built for batch cocktails and entertaining.

• Frozen Mango Margarita: Blend with tequila and ice for a classic frozen tropical margarita; the thick body of this mix holds up well in a blender without becoming watery.
• Mango Paloma Riff: Combine with tequila and a splash of grapefruit soda for a fruity twist on the Paloma; the lime in the mix bridges naturally with grapefruit bitterness.
• Mango Daiquiri: Swap tequila for white rum and shake over ice; the Alphonso mango and lime base mirrors the daiquiri's classic sweet-sour architecture.

Best For

• Hosting summer backyard parties or poolside gatherings where batch cocktails are essential
• Tiki night at home when you want a tropical frozen drink without sourcing fresh mangoes
• Tailgating or outdoor events where a large-format, shelf-stable mixer simplifies prep
• Bridal showers or celebratory brunches that call for colorful, crowd-pleasing pitchers
