Mangonada. For a colder mangonada, transfer mixture to the freezer until it reaches the consistency of a slushy. Mangonadas are a traditional frozen treat from Mexico. These are much like an American slushie, with Mexican flavors.
This will keep the mangonada nice and thick.
If using fresh mango instead of frozen, you will use ice to thicken the mangonada.
The amount of chamoy and Tajin are up to you!
You can cook Mangonada using 6 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you achieve it.

A mangonada is sweet, spicy, a little tart and a tad salty. The sweetness of course comes from the mangos. The spiciness comes from the Tajin, the tartness comes from lime juicy, the savory (or salt) also from the Tajin. A mangonada is a quintessential Mexican treat, made of mango, orange juice, chamoy and chile lime salt, and they're sold just about everywhere from street vendors to neverÃas in Mexico.
