Overall I'd have to give this one an 8.5, mostly for its versatility, but lower marks because it's not a great standalone beverage. However, don't limit it there, I could see making an awesome Mango reduction sauce, for maybe a mahi or a light pork dish. If you're looking for an alternative for mixing some sort of alcohol, this certainly is it. Squeeze juice from 1 lime quarter into each drink and garnish glass with. Otherwise, pour into cocktail shaker and shake. Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor if using fresh or frozen mango. However this drink comes into its own when mixed. Rim margarita, hurricane-style glass or cocktail glasses with sugar, if inclined. It's extremely versatile, and I bet I could drink this down by itself, if I could handle the sweetness. Wow, is all I could really say about this. However, as shown above, this can be mixed with almost anything, even a southern USA staple, sweet tea! I again, did try and mix a bit with some coconut flavored liquor, and it was pretty awesome. Overall, I only took a sip of this without a mix or even water, and it was too sweet, even for my tastes. The color and texture of the nectar is very thick (for a standalone drink), and almost a fluorescent yellow. strangely good.Īs you can probably see above, this isn't exactly what the nectar looks like. However, I wasn't bothered by it, just giving a different opinion.Īs Mentioned, this is mixed with Sweet Tea, nothing else. However if you've ever been around fresh mangoes. As far as how this product smells, my significant other said it smelled rotten etc. Anyway, I will say this was an afterthought, and I did buy this along with some coconut milk/water which I may review later sometime. I have had my fair share of juices and the like, but nothing labeled specifically nectar. I didn't know what to expect from a "nectar" drink having never had one before. Again, definitely one of my more random moments, but will this one pay off? I really have to be honest and really just picked this up on a whim that I could possibly mix this with a splash of coconut rum. This "nectar" is from Jumex, in Mexico but is distributed in the USA from San Antonio, TX. I guess that’s the difference between a nectar and a juice. What I really get from this is that it isn’t watery like a juice but more thick and hearty. This is pretty close to eating a real mango when it comes to this stage in the taste. The rest of the ingredients are pretty simple too.I think it's about time that I did a review on something from a different part of the world. Then it kind of materializes into a mango flavour and it tastes very fresh.
