Geometric frustration arises when magnetic interactions between different spins on a lattice are incompatible with the underlying crystal geometry. Motivated by recent experimental progress in making non-bipartite optical lattices [1], we investigate the zero-temperature quantum phases of a Bose-Bose mixture in a triangular lattice, using bosonic dynamical mean field theory (BDMFT) [2]. We map out the ground state phase diagram of the system which contains spin-ordered phases, weak charge density wave, superfluid, and supersolid phases. The effects of geometric frustration on the spin-ordered phases and phase transitions between different spin-ordered phases are also discussed.
