stars & stripes


I like making red white and blue foods on the fourth and... drinking margaritas. This is so cute and so simple. The first time I made it I put the 1/2 teas. of salt that martha intended for the rims into the drink and I really liked it-- this is right on the edge of being too sweet and I like that little extra bit of salt. Happy holidays!
Patriotic Coconut Margarita

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons tequila
1/4 cup Cointreau or other orange liqueur
Salt for the Rim
blueberries
strawberries cut into stars with a small cookie cutter
Put the first 5 ingredients in the blender with about a cup of ice and blend until smooth. Pour into glasses with salted rims and garnish with berries.
