Mango Passion Fruit Margarita
This mango and passion fruit frozen margarita can also be made into a kid-friendly smoothie by leaving out the alcohol. If you can't find fresh passion fruit, most Latin and Asian grocery stores sell frozen passion fruit pulp or concentrate, which can be substituted. Can't find the frozen pulp either? You can also use store-bought passion fruit juice; just remember to cut the sugar or honey from the recipe, as the juice will already be sweetened.
