Ingredients
- 1 large ripe mango, peeled, cut into pieces (8-10 oz flesh)
- 6 sprigs mint, leaves picked, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 3 Tbsp honey (or more)
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice (or more)
- chili-lime seasoning, sparkling water and lime wedges, for serving
Method
- Pound the mango pieces, chopped mint leaves and kosher salt in a large mortar, or pulse them in a food processor, until the mixture is mostly smooth.
- Stir the honey and lime juice into the mango puree, then check its balance and add a little more honey or lime juice if needed, keeping the mixture very sweet and punchy because it will be diluted.
- Spread some of the chili-lime seasoning on a small plate for rimming the glasses.
- For each spritzer, moisten half of the rim of a 10 to 12 oz glass with lime juice, dip that rim in the seasoning, spoon 3 tablespoons of the mango mixture into the glass, fill it with ice and top it with about 6 oz of sparkling water.
- Finish each mango spritzer with a lime wedge on its rim and serve the drinks while the sparkling water is still lively.
