The quality of mango liqueurs has improved dramatically over recent years and I was inspired to create any of the following cocktails when our first bottle of Chinola Mango Liqueur was sent to us towards the end of 2024. It mixes brilliantly with mezcal, so if you only try one of the following cocktails, be sure it's the Mezcal Mango Margarita.
