Why You’ll Love This Peach Mango Salsa
Think of this salsa as summer in a spoonful. You’ve got the lush sweetness of peaches, the tropical richness of mangoes, and a bright hit of lime that ties everything together. Add a little jalapeño for a slow-building heat and you’ve got a salsa that’s as colorful as it is craveable. It’s a total crowd-pleaser at BBQs, taco nights, or as a quick dip when you need something light but flavor-packed. Plus, no stove needed—just chop, mix, and chill.
Ingredients You’ll Need
Fresh Produce
- Peaches – Choose ripe but firm peaches so they hold their shape. Peel, pit, and dice them evenly.
- Mangoes – Ataulfo mangoes (aka champagne mangoes) are buttery-sweet and less fibrous. Cut around the pit and chop into small cubes.
- Tomatoes – Use firm, ripe tomatoes to add acidity and juiciness.
- Red bell pepper – Adds crunch and a pop of color.
- Red onion – Finely diced for just the right bite.
- Garlic – Minced fresh for extra punch.
- Jalapeño – Remove the seeds for mild heat or leave them in if you’re feeling spicy.
- Cilantro – Brings freshness that brightens the whole bowl.
Flavor Boosters
- Lime juice – Fresh-squeezed only, please. It wakes up all the flavors.
- Sea salt & black pepper – Season to taste.
Optional upgrades: Add diced avocado for creaminess, cucumber for a cooling crunch, or a tiny drizzle of honey if your peaches are on the tart side.
How to Make Peach Mango Salsa
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Chop it up. Dice peaches, mangoes, and tomatoes slightly larger than the other ingredients for that juicy texture. Keep your red onion, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapeño finely diced so they blend smoothly into every bite.
- Mix it together. In a large bowl, combine all the chopped produce.
- Add flavor. Squeeze in the lime juice, toss in the chopped cilantro, and season with sea salt and black pepper.
- Let it rest. Chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes. This step is gold—it lets the fruit release their juices and the flavors meld beautifully.
Storage Tips
This salsa is best within the first 1–2 days when the fruit is freshest. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge. It’ll keep for several days, but expect the texture to soften a bit over time.
Tips for Perfect Peach Mango Salsa
- Go ripe but firm. Mushy fruit = mushy salsa. Choose produce that yields slightly to the touch but still holds shape.
- Control the spice. Want it mild? Remove the jalapeño seeds. Like it hot? Keep them in or swap for a serrano.
- Use a sharp knife. A clean cut keeps your ingredients bright and prevents bruising.
What to Serve It With
Peach Mango Salsa plays well with almost everything. Spoon it over fish tacos or grilled chicken, serve it with tortilla chips, or use it as a bright topping for burrito bowls and salads. It’s also a secret weapon for breakfast quesadillas—trust me.
