Description

This Ninja Slushi mango margarita is a frosty, fresh frozen cocktail made with real mango nectar, blanco tequila, fresh lime, and triple sec. The Spiked Slush setting delivers a smooth, scoopable texture every time with zero ice and zero dilution. Perfect for summer parties, pool days, or anytime you want a restaurant quality frozen margarita at home.

Ingredients 

For the Margarita:

  • 24 oz mango nectar, Goya, Jumex, or Kern's
  • 8 oz silver, blanco tequila
  • 4 oz triple sec or Cointreau
  • 3 oz fresh lime juice, about 3 to 4 limes
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup
  • 20 oz cold water

For Serving:

  • Flaky sea salt or Tajín, for rimming
  • Lime wedges, for garnish
  • Fresh mango slices, for garnish

Instructions

  • Combine the ingredients. Pour the mango nectar, tequila, triple sec, lime juice, simple syrup, and cold water into the Ninja Slushi vessel. Stir briefly with a long spoon to fully dissolve the simple syrup.
  • Check the fill line. Make sure the total volume sits between the MIN and MAX fill lines on the vessel.
  • Lock and load. Place the vessel onto the base, secure the lid, and confirm the dispense handle is fully closed.
  • Start the cycle. Select the SPIKED SLUSH setting and press start. Leave the temperature on the default preset for best results.
  • Wait for the beep. Let the machine run for 35 to 45 minutes until it beeps three times to signal the optimal slush consistency.
  • Prepare the glasses. While the machine runs, rub a lime wedge around the rim of each margarita glass and press into a plate of flaky salt or Tajín.
  • Dispense and serve. Slowly pull the dispense handle to fill each salt rimmed glass. Garnish with a lime wheel and a thin slice of fresh mango. Serve immediately.

Equipment

  • Ninja Slushi Machine (64 oz standard model)
  • Citrus juicer or hand squeezer
  • Long mixing spoon
  • Small plate (for salt rimming)
  • Margarita glasses

Notes

For Best Texture: Use refrigerator cold ingredients. Room temperature liquids slow the freeze and reduce final texture quality.
If It's Not Freezing: Too much alcohol or not enough sugar. Add 2 to 3 oz of mango nectar and run another short cycle.
If It's Too Icy or Grainy: Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons of simple syrup and run an additional 10 minutes.
Mocktail Version: Skip the tequila and triple sec. Replace with 8 oz additional mango nectar plus 4 oz orange juice.
Make Ahead: The Ninja Slushi holds slush temperature for up to 12 hours, making it perfect for parties.

  • 48 oz Walmart model: Multiply ingredients by 0.75
  • 74 oz Costco XL: Multiply ingredients by 1.15
  • 112 oz Ninja Slushi Max: Multiply ingredients by 1.75
