Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

Crust:

  • 1 cup finely crushed pretzels

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • cup margarine, melted

Filling:

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

  • cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed

  • 2 tablespoons tequila

  • 1 tablespoon orange liqueur

  • 3 drops green food coloring, or as needed (Optional)

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1 lime, sliced (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Combine pretzels and sugar in a bowl; stir in melted margarine. Mix until evenly incorporated and moistened; press into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

  4. Combine sweetened condensed milk, limeade concentrate, tequila, orange liqueur, and green food coloring in a large bowl until well blended.

  5. Beat cream in a separate glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Lift the beater or whisk straight up: whipped cream should form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into condensed milk mixture. Spoon filling into cooled crust.

  6. Cover pie with plastic wrap; freeze until firm, about 4 hours. Let stand at room temperature before serving for 10 minutes; garnish with lime slices.

Food has always been my favorite way to connect with people, and that’s why I started blogging about it.

Whether it’s a speedy weeknight dinner or a fun snack, I enjoy keeping things simple, flavorful, and approachable for everyone.
