This non-traditional margarita is a favorite with chilheads at Hot Luck
dinners.
Ingredients
Lime section
Salt as needed
1 1/2 cups spicy tequila or the chiltepín tequila
8 fresh limes, or enough to make 1/2 cup juice
1/4 cup Cointreau or Triple Sec
Crushed ice
Instructions
Prepare 4 long-stemmed goblets by rubbing the rims with a piece of a
lime section. Dip the goblet rims in the salt in a saucer and then place
the goblets in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
Juice the limes and then place the lime juice, tequila, and triple sec
in a blender. Add the crushed ice until the blender is half-full and
then process. Taste the results and adjust the flavors by adding more
triple sec to make it sweeter, more lime juice to make it more tart,
tequila to increase the heat level, or ice to decrease the heat level.
Pour into the frosted goblets and garnish with a slice of lime.
