Margaritas

Yesterday i had a couple of left over limes so I raided the liquor cabinet and came up with this. Yes it was Wednesday but the Thermomix had already made dinner so I thought this would make bath time with the kids a bit more fun. And so easy and fast to make in the TM.

Recipe

1 part Cointreau
1.5 parts tequila
some ice

Skin limes and add to bowl. Mix sp7 for 6 secs
instert steamer basket to drain lime juice. Discard left over 'grainy bits' and add lime juice back to bowl.
Weigh juice and add the same weight of Cointreau then one and half of tequila.
mix sp 4, 5 secs. Set aside.

Add ice to bowl and crush sp 9, 5 secs. Use spatula to assist if necessary

Add ice to cocktail saucer and pour margarita over.
