Delicious tamarind 'straws' and essential to make the famous Mexican Mangonadas.
Ingredients:
* 5 large ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted and cut into 1cm pieces (about 8 cups)
* ¼ cup granulated sugar, or to taste
* ¼ cup fresh lime juice (from 2 fresh limes)
* 1½ cups cold water, or as needed
* ¾ cup silver tequila or rum (optional)
* ¾ to 1 cup chamoy or to taste
* Tajin to sprinkle
* 4 Banderilla Tama-Roca tamarind candy straws
Method:
* Place 5 cups mango in a blender, reserving the remaining 3 cups.
* Add the sugar, lime juice and 3/4 cup cold water to the blender, and blend on medium-high speed until puréed.
* Blend in tequila or rum, if using and additional water, adding 1/4 cup at a time, until mango mixture reaches the desired consistency.
