Those sound yummy (too complicated for me) but yummy. Remember I am the tang and orange rum drinker

I just made these today. I made the first recipe and I think the second one would be better. It needed more mango, less lime and more sugar. It was wonderful though! Yum!!!

sea-nile, thanks for the taste test. will try recipe #2 this weekend. the best drinks were made with the vita-mix while on st. john last month when we just threw in everything in the fridge. for entertaining, i like to use a recipe because often i will haul all the ingredients (including the blender) to someone else's kitchen and i like exact measurements. and with a recipe, it's so easy to double it.
what kind of rum do you use?

I used Bacardi this time.
I think it is a matter of personal taste. I usually like limey things a lot and found that this was a little too limey. I usually like it more frozen too so if the mango was frozen ahead of time that would be real good. I am already looking forward to making it again!

sea-nile, got a call from a client with whom i shared the two mango rum recipes, she tried #2, and RAVED about it. she used canned mango.
i cannot wait to try it this weekend, of course with fresh mangos.

Mangos are on sale at all of the supermarkets in my area and they are delish! I think I am going to try some drink recipes this weekend with my girlfriends! Hubby is off on another trip for 2 1/2 weeks!
Have to get ready for "Six On The Beach"!
