Frozen Mango Margarita
The blender done right: frozen mango instead of ice does the chilling and the thickening at once, so the drink never waters down. A smoky float on top is optional and excellent.

Panel note
A Verified Pure blanco changes this drink completely. Sweetened tequila reads as syrup here; a clean spirit reads as agave.
