Portland Syrups Mango Habanero Syrup
Portland Syrups Mango Habanero is a non-alcoholic beverage syrup made with mango purée and habanero peppers. Ripe mango leads, followed by slow-building heat, a little lime brightness and a subtle floral note from bergamot. It brings sweet heat to sparkling water, citrus drinks and cocktails without needing you to slice a single pepper.
Why We Love It
We like a spicy drink that gives the fruit a chance to speak before the heat arrives. Mango Habanero does exactly that. The mango tastes lush and juicy, and the habanero builds gradually enough that you can enjoy another sip before deciding how daring you feel. It’s particularly good for anyone who orders a spicy Margarita, but we also love how a small pour wakes up a simple glass of soda and lime.
How to Drink Portland Syrups Mango Habanero
For an easy serve, mix 1 oz of syrup with 6 oz of sparkling water over ice and squeeze in fresh lime. Use a smaller pour for gentler heat. It also works in a spicy Paloma, a mango Margarita or a frozen drink.
