  1. YUMMY. This was just fantastic. Taste like a luscious, creamy margarita without the salt. This looked so great in the margarita glasses. Just beautiful and tasted divine. Thanks Lorac. Can't wait to show these off at my next party.
     
  2. Lorac, This recipe deserves 10 stars! Like I wrote on my last review, I added the lime yogurt to my shopping list that day. Your dessert was wonderful and so easy to make. It was such an appropriate dessert for the evening, because I had made homemade salsa and we had chicken Fajitas. All made with fresh vegetables from our garden. My guests were thrilled with the dessert, nothing left! I also added a lime peel curl on the top and a sprig of mint, again, from our garden. Once again, thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.

  3. Wow what a great easy recipe, the flavor was wonderful. I made this for dinner last night and its on my list for our next dinner party. Great easy recipe and can be doubled or triped without a problem. Our next dinnerparty is a Mexican theme so this will go great. Thanks so much. Its a keeper.
     
  4. I made this for a luncheon that I catered and everyone loved it! They said it was very light and refreshing after a heavy Mexican meal. I did leave out the liquor since the lady I catered the party for doesn't drink. They've requested that I make this for the next luncheon I cater. Maybe even perhaps with different flavors. Thanks for posting! Looks like i'll definitely be making this again!
     
  5. These were so wonderful, Carol. I followed the recipe exactly and think it is perfect as stands. The tequila and triple sec flavors were subtle but detectable. The texture was fabulously creamy. We had a salad for supper so this was the perfect ending to a light summer meal. Thanks for sharing.

  1. Excellent dessert!! I could not find lime yogurt so I mixed some crystal lite lime flavoured mix into plain yogurt and it worked well. I also use gin instead of tequila as that was what I had. It was great. Will be buyings some tequila soon to try it as well, but don't be afraid to use gin!! Thank you Lorac.
