Ingredients

• For the Crust:
• 1 cup finely crushed pretzels
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup margarine or butter, melted
• For the Filling:
• One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/3 cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
• 1-2 tablespoons tequila
• 1 tablespoon orange liqueur
• Several drops green food coloring (optional)
• 1 cup whipping cream
• Lime slices (optional)

Directions

1. FOR THE CRUST:

2. Stir together crushed pretzels and sugar. Stir in melted margarine or butter. Spread mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie plate. Press onto bottom and sides to form a firm, even crust. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for 5 minutes or till edge is lightly browned. Cool on a rack.

3. FOR THE FILLING:

4. In a large mixing bowl combine sweetened condensed milk, limeade concentrate, tequila, orange liqueur, and, if desired, food coloring. In a medium mixing bowl beat whipping cream till soft peaks form; fold into tequila mixture. Spoon filling into crust. Cover and freeze about 4 hours, or till firm. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with lime slices.
