Mexican Fiesta at home-part five

Triple Berry Margaritas (yield 2 drinks)

Call it dessert if you like. You could even reason with yourself that with all the berries in this drink, it's loaded with antioxidants and is part of some sort of New Year's Resolution....a stretch. But with all this delicious Mexican food, I felt compelled to create this at home version of a Margarita.

In a blender combine the following:
6 ice cubes
2 shots tequila
1/2 of a 16 oz. bag of frozen triple berry blend mix (I used raspberry/blackberry/blueberry blend)
1/4 of a lime juiced
2 t. white sugar
1/2 c. Mountain Dew or sours mix
Pulse ingredients in blender until well blended and ice is crushed. You may have to add a splash of Mountain Dew/sours mix to thin. Use a lime wedge around rim of margarita glass and dip in sugar. Serve with a garnish of lime. Ole'.
