Step 1

Peel and chop a ripe mango. Blend it in a blender until smooth. Strain the puree to remove any fibers and ensure a smooth cocktail.

Step 2

In a shaker, combine the vodka, mango puree, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice, covering the liquid.

Step 3

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. The goal is to chill the mixture thoroughly and mix all the ingredients well.

Step 4

Strain the cocktail into a chilled glass. You can use a rocks glass or a coupe, depending on your preference.

Step 5

Garnish with a slice of mango on the rim of the glass or float it inside. Add a few mint leaves for a touch of color and freshness.

Step 6

Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant flavors of your Mango Vodka Sour.
