What is a Mangonada made of?

A mangonada typically includes mango, lime juice, chamoy, Tajín, and sometimes tamarind. It’s sweet, tangy, and a little spicy.

Is a Mangonada ice cream?

Not exactly. It’s more like a mango sorbet or frozen smoothie with chili and chamoy toppings. Our bars are a firmer, sliceable version of that.

What’s the difference between a mangonada and a chamoyada?

Mangonadas use mango sorbet or smoothie as the base. Chamoyadas are icy slushies flavored with chamoy and fruit syrups.

Can I make Mangonada Sorbet Bars without Tajín?

Absolutely. Tajín adds a chili-lime zing, but you can skip it or replace it with mild chili powder and sea salt for less heat.
