Mango, Pineapple & Mint Margarita

Ingredients

mint salt (small bunch fresh mint, chopped; 1 tbsp caster sugar; 2 tbsp flaky sea salt)
1 cup ice
1 lime, halved
2-3 slices mango, skin removed
2-3 slices pineapple, skin and core removed
30ml Cointreau
50ml tequila
pineapple, to garnish
edible flowers, to garnish (optional)

Margarita is the drink of the moment, and this 'slushie' style sunshine number is a total showstopper. Serves 1, but this recipe is easily tripled or quadrupled.

For the mint salt, blend/whizz mint, caster sugar and salt until it resembles granules. Transfer to a shallow dish.
For the drink, use lime flesh to wet the rim of a glass, and dip rim into mint salt. Set glass aside.
Add ice and juice of half a lime to a blender, then top with mango and pineapple. Add Cointreau and tequila, then blend until smooth.
Pour into your prepared glass and garnish with pineapple and (optional) edible flowers.
