Today is Friday!!! I am ready for the weekend. We only have one football game, and the rest is free to do whatever we want. I think we are headed up to the mountains to do some hiking, so that should be fun.
Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo, and as much as we love Mexican food around here, we don’t do much to celebrate. I do have something for you tomorrow though, so be sure to come back 🙂 Today, I wanted to give you a fun drink for the weekend. I know Margaritas are traditional, and I am all over a great Margarita, but I wanted to mix it up a little. I wanted something fruity!
When I was at the grocery store this week I saw mango’s all over the place, and on sale. I don’t think I have ever actually purchased a mango, so I decided to pick on up. This drink seemed like the perfect time to use it. There is one slight problem with this drink … you need a blender to make it. I only have a food processor, and it doesn’t quite do the trick. The flavor was amazing, but it just wasn’t as smooth as it should have been. But trust me, head to the store pick up a a mango, and get out the blender!

This cooler drink is fantastic! Nothing beats a refreshing summer drink and I am so jealous of your constant supply of mangoes! 😉
Can’t wait for winter to be over 😀

Thanks for this delicious and refreshing idea! Happy Friday 🙂
I love that you used Crystal Light for this. I have some in my pantry now. Mango is perfect too. Very festive, Erin!
This looks so refreshing Erin! We have a Margaritaville blender that we get out every Cinco de Mayo so I am going to try this in it! I just need to get mango!
Mango is one of my favorite fruits, I would love a glass of this!
Love mango…this sounds fab! Alas…I broke my blender recently. Haven’t had a chance to replace it yet, so I’ve been using my Cuisinart in its place too…
This looks quite refreshing, smooth or not. Have a great weekend!
This drink looks absolutely incredible! It sounds like something we’d LOVE here! ….mangoes are one of my faves!
There are mangoes all over the place at my grocery store too and now I’m totally inspired to buy one 🙂 This looks so good!
Mango is like my favoritest fruit. Mangoes and vodka would be perfect to kick back with on a summery saturday afternoon. 🙂
