Regency's Ultimate Tailgate Takeout ft. @jetplanemommy

Written by Regency Centers | Oct 28

Although live sports looks a little different this year, Regency Centers is celebrating this season in a new way with Ultimate Tailgate Takeout: a portfolio-wide initiative created to inspire Regency’s sports-loving community members to design their best at-home tailgate experiences. Over the coming weeks, we'll continue to share the unique #rctailgatetakeout experiences of participants from coast-to-coast, including team-inspired treats and beverages to gift baskets, decor and more!

Sports have been a bit different this season, but we are still happy to be able to enjoy watching it with our closest family and friends—especially with delicious food and drinks that I grabbed from Regency’s Village at La Floresta to create the Ultimate Tailgate Takeout!

We love watching sports as a family, and most importantly, we enjoy having a cocktail or two while watching our favorite team play. The one thing I enjoy making and drinking the most are frozen mango margaritas. You just can’t ever go wrong with a margarita, and the best part is that the kids also get to enjoy their version of it—without the alcohol, of course. To make our margaritas, I stopped by Whole Foods and grabbed all the ingredients to make the adult and virgin version of it before the game starts. Not only do they taste delicious, but they are also very refreshing.

Besides making cocktails and mocktails for us and our other three guests, we enjoyed some delicious food from Mendocino Farms Brea. I picked up a catering package with items that not only I would enjoy but also our friends and family would love. All of the items on their menu are made with fine dining quality ingredients sourced from local farms and artesian partners, and let me tell you: they do not disappoint.

By far my favorite food is the BBQ Chicken and Smoked Gouda Cheffy Cocktail Sandwiches, Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada, and the Curried Couscous. The flavors and freshness are just impeccable. It definitely makes for a more fun tailgate takeout experience when you have the perfect food to go with it!

Make sure to check Mendocino Farms Brea out. You can either order online here, or place your order by phone or email.

Things you will need for an adult margarita:

  • Limes
  • Sugar or salt for rim of cup (optional)
  • 1 ½ cups tequila
  • 2 cups frozen mango
  • 1 ½ cups orange juice
  • Ice for blending

Things you will need for a virgin margarita:

  • 2 cups frozen mango
  • 1 ½ cups orange juice
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • Ice for blending
Directions:

Halve your limes set aside. In a blender place all of your mango, tequila (if you are making a kid friendly version, replace this with coconut milk), orange juice, ice cubes and blend for about 45 seconds or until it’s completely smooth. With a piece of lime wet the rim of the cup and dip the cup in your salt or sugar. Pour the drink in the cup, serve immediately and enjoy!
