Key
Lime and Tequila Pie
This recipe is a
variation of a key lime pie flavored with tequila. Use a good quality
tequila for best results. Just like when you cook with wine you
never want to cook with a quality wine or tequila that you would not
want to drink |

Preheat the oven to 350º.
Mix the milk, lime juice, tequila, salt, 1 tablespoon of the sugar and
the egg yolks until very well combined.
The reaction of the milk with the lime juice will make for a thick
filling.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Make meringue by beating the egg whites with the remaining 2 tablespoons
sugar until stiff peaks are formed.
Top pie with meringue and bake pie for 15 minutes or until lightly
browned on top. |
