Mango vodka drinks are a simple, crowd-pleasing category of cocktails which can be sweet, spicy, or sour depending on what you're feeling like making. Given that vodka is a more neutral flavored alcohol than other spirits like whiskey or rum, you can add anything to it and end up with a pretty potent flavor. This means that you should absolutely be able to taste the mango right away in anyone of these mango vodka cocktails; and if you've really caught a case of the mango madness, then you can use mango vodka on top of the other mango ingredients for a bright orange drink.
