Spherical Mango Daiquiri
Ingredients
for 10 people
40 grams of water
40 grams of sugar
150 g mango juice
10 g passion fruit juice
50 grams of rum
5g GlucoSalt
5g Algin
1 l water (use still mineral water with a calcium content of less than 50 mg/l!)
Passion fruit for garnish
Preparation
For the Algin bath, stir the Algin into 500 g of water with a hand blender. When the mixture is smooth and even, add the rest of the water and stir. Leave for at least 8 hours. Mix the water and sugar, bring to the boil and allow to cool. Mix the juices with the rum and the sugar syrup. Stir in GlucoSalt with the blender until dissolved. Add Xanthan Instant and continue stirring until you get an even and slightly viscous mixture.
Using the 2.5ml scoop, add the syrup-juice mixture to the Algin bath in portions, creating spheres. Leave for a minute, then remove from the bath with a slotted spoon and rinse with still water (with a calcium content of less than 50 mg/l). The spheres can be stored in syrup for some time. Serve over crushed ice and garnish with passion fruit.
