Ingredients

2 cups mango nectar
1 bag CHEETOS^® Crunchy FLAMIN' HOT^® Limón Cheese Flavored Snacks
8 ½ oz bag CHEETOS^® White Cheddar Bag of Bones
4 limes, for zest and garnish
1 cup lime juice
1 tbsp demerara sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
1 cup white tequila
4 envelopes of unflavored gelatin

Instructions

Step 1
Blitz up one 8 ½ oz bag CHEETOS^® FLAMIN’ HOT^® Limón in food processor and set aside.

Step 2
Measure out 1 liquid cup each of tequila and lime juice and pour into pitcher to reserve.

Step 3
Measure 2 cups mango nectar into saucepan, add sugar and salt and whisk over medium heat to dissolve.

Step 4
While your mango mixture heats, return your lime juice and tequila to measuring cup and lightly sprinkle powdered gelatin over the surface of cold liquids in even layers, allowing gelatin to fully hydrate and drop before adding more to avoid clumping.

Step 5
Once mango nectar reaches a light simmer, turn off heat and whisk in bloomed gelatin mixture until completely dissolved.

Step 6
Using microplane, zest two limes in and then strain back into pitcher, pouring out 1 cup liquid into measuring cup with two spoonsful of crushed CHEETOS^® FLAMIN’ HOT^® Limón.

Step 7
Mix together, until color changes to red and strain into separate container to separate out pieces.

Step 8
Allow to cool slightly before proceeding; dice up one mango and rim your cocktail glasses while you wait by running lime wedge around edge of glassware and dipping into plate of crushed CHEETOS^®.

Step 9
Set up cocktail glasses on sturdy tray and cover the bottom of each with diced mango.

Step 10
Pour over CHEETOS^®-infused cocktail to cover mango, continuing until glasses are evenly filled a 1/4 of the way high, move to level part of refrigerator or freezer to chill until firm.

Step 11
When firm, lightly coat top of gelatin with layer of crushed CHEETOS^®, and using the back of a spoon, gently pour mango mixture over the top, doing your best to not disturb the layer.

Step 12
CHEETOS^® FLAMIN’ HOT^® Bag of Bones^® Ending: Pour layer 2/3 up the glass, and then garnish by floating CHEETOS^® FLAMIN’ HOT^® Bag of Bones^® skull, hand, and ribcage in the top to create a spooky apparition.
