Virgin layered Strawberry-Mango margarita


Layers of blended strawberries and mango with a touch of zesty citrus flavor combine for a fun nonalcoholic drink without all the extra calories and sugar of a traditional restaurant margarita.

Ingredients

 3 cups frozen strawberries

 3 cups ice, divided

 1 cup water, divided

 ⅔ cup lime juice, divided

 ½ cup orange juice, divided

 ¼ cup simple syrup (see Tip), divided

 3 cups frozen mango chunks

Directions

Step 1

Place strawberries, 1 1/2 cups ice, 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup orange juice and 2 tablespoons simple syrup in a blender. Puree until smooth. Transfer to a pitcher or bowl.

Step 2

Rinse out the blender jar. Place mango and the remaining 1 1/2 cups ice, 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup orange juice and 2 tablespoons simple syrup in the blender. Puree until smooth.

Step 3

Decoratively layer the two margaritas in 6 glasses. Leave the layers distinct or partially stir together for a swirled design.
