Beer Battered Shrimp Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa

Beer Battered Shrimp Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa

Beer Battered Shrimp Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa. This is the perfect summer taco Tuesday because the mango salsa and cole slaw bring all the tropical colors and flavors to this dish. The shrimp is nice and crispy fried in a beer battered and the tortillas are lightly charred and everything is drizzled with a refreshing lime crema. A combination of sweet, spicy, and tangy make this tropical taco arrangement so perfect !!

The perfect summer taco does exist…and this is it. All the vibrant, bright summery colors. All the sweet, spicy, and tangy summery flavors. This ones super tropical and anything tropical says summer to me. Plus the mango salsa…as you all probably well know by now that is my favorite summer go to.

So the shrimp is crispy and beer battered. And then we made a rainbow Cole slaw…I call it rainbow because there are tons of different veggies in the mix which make it super colorful. And of course the classic mango salsa that we all know and love. Drizzled with a refreshing and tangy Lime Crema. SO good.

We haven’t done a lot of taco Tuesdays this summer and I am not really sure why. But I am happy to bringing them back for a few more weeks before summers over. I think summer tacos are the best tacos. They're so colorful and there is endless possibilities with the seafood. Which any kind of seafood taco is always my favorite. These are no exception so make sure you try them !!
