Coconut Lime Margaritas
Got Tequila? That's a good thing because today is National Margarita Day!!!
I'm so glad you're here. Have a seat. I have the most PERFECT Margarita you will
ever taste. I mean how could you go wrong with Lime and Coconut. If you make
these you will be sure to sing all night Put The Lime In The Coconut!!! Enjoy - friends.
Coconut Lime Margarita
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1 cup cream of coconut
1/2 cup of tequila
1/4 cup of triple sec
1) Preheat oven to 350. Mix coconut and salt and put on a baking sheet and cook
until lightly toasted. Watch carefully. Cool
2) On a small plate squeeze some cream of coconut and rim glass and then dip in
coconut mixture.
3) Combine remaining ingredients in blender with 1 1/2 cups of ice. Blend until
smooth and serve in glasses.
Um - two of my husbands FAVORITE flavors??? fabulous. And so gorg
