Ok, I know we are all feeling the effects of Fat Tuesday… but did you know today is National Margarita Day? Does this also mean it is 5 o’clock all day??
We think you should celebrate, responsibly of course. ;)
Check out this recipe we are just dying to try:
Honeydew Rita
adapted from Cuisine at Home
Rub Glasses With; Coat In:
Lime Wedges
Kosher salt or sugar
Blend:
4 cups ice cubes
3 cups honeydew melon, peeled, seeded, cut into chunks
3/4 cup tequila
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 drop of green food coloring (optional)
Garnish Margaritas With:
Honeydew spears
Sprigs of fresh mint
Rub the rims of 4-6 cocktail glasses with limes, then coat in salt or sugar (depending on your taste preference). I like sugar, the Wild Boar likes salt. Go figure.
Blend ice, melon, tequila, honey and lime juice in a blender until smooth. Divide between prepared glasses.
Garnish with melon and mint sprigs.
Talk about deelish… now get yourself to Margaritaville, even if it is your office.
