With Sandra Lee Cocktail Time™ Margaritas being available just about EVERYWHERE now – including my favorite grocery store, Safeway, I wanted to give the Key Lime one a try. I used the Strawberry Margarita mix in these Strawberry Sparklers that I made this summer and they were delicious. You can find the recipe on my blog at www.thebubblyhostess.blogspot.com.
During one of our weekend visits this summer to our cabin, we had plans to make all kinds of different concoctions. However, we stopped after just one.
One try and it was perfect. I had to give all of the credit to the margarita mix. We did come up with another recipe – but I’ll keep that to myself for now, stay tuned for a second variety.
This can easily be multiplied out to make a pitcher’s worth – which I probably should have done in the first place. I couldn’t keep up with the rate of consumption!
Also – I love to hear feedback – please visit my blog at www.thebubblyhostess.blogspot.com. You can also follow The Bubbly Hostess on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, and Twitter.
