Citric Acid Free Classic Mango Daiquiri

Frozen mango and fresh lime juice come together in a blender for a tropical cocktail that tastes like a beach vacation in a glass. The sweetness of the mango does a lot of the heavy lifting here, so the homemade simple syrup — just water and sugar stirred together on the stovetop — lets you dial in exactly how sweet or tart you want the final drink to be. Avoiding added citric acid can be tricky with store-bought cocktail mixes and pre-made sour mixes, which almost always sneak it in as a preservative, but this recipe skips all of that entirely. Every sour note comes straight from real lime juice, so you know exactly what's going into your glass. White rum keeps things clean and light, letting the mango and lime stay front and center. Blended with ice until silky smooth and poured into chilled glasses, this is the kind of drink that looks impressive but comes together in just a few minutes.
