Time 7h50m

Yield one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 12

14 graham cracker sheets (2 sleeves)
3 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon tequila
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup defrosted limeade concentrate
1/4 cup tequila
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons orange-flavored liqueur, such as Triple Sec
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for garnish
1 cup heavy cream
Eight 1/2-inch lime wedges (from 1 or 2 limes)

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Process the graham crackers and sugar in a food processor to a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and tequila, and pulse until moist. Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie plate, and bake until firm, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
  • For the filling: Whisk together the condensed milk, limeade, tequila, lime juice, liqueur and salt in a large bowl until smooth and combined. Beat the cream with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed in another large bowl until stiff peaks form. Reduce the speed to low, and drizzle in the condensed milk mixture. Return the mixer to medium-high, and beat until the mixture is completely incorporated and fluffy, about 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down the side of the bowl if necessary. Transfer the filling to the cooled crust, cover loosely with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • Transfer the pie to the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with lime wedges dipped in salt, and serve.

FROZEN MARGARITA PIE

You'll need to freeze the pie for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, for the ideal texture, so be sure to plan ahead.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter
10 graham crackers
3 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided
3/4 cup chilled heavy cream
4 limes, halved
1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
3 Tbsp. tequila blanco

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Let cool slightly.
  • Crumble graham crackers into a food processor. Add melted butter, sugar, and 1/4 tsp. salt and process until mixture resembles wet sand. Transfer mixture to a shallow 9"-diameter pie dish. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press crust firmly and evenly across bottom and up sides of dish. Freeze 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk cream in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes.
  • Finely grate zest from 1 lime half into a small bowl; set aside. Squeeze juice from all of the limes into a fine-mesh sieve set over a glass measuring cup (you should have about 1/2 cup juice).
  • Pour lime juice into another medium bowl. Add condensed milk, tequila, and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and whisk until mixture is smooth. Gently fold in half of the whipped cream just to combine, then add the remaining whipped cream and gently fold until no streaks remain (be careful not to overmix; you want to keep as much air in the whipped cream as possible).
  • Remove pie dish from the freezer and scrape filling into crust. Use a spoon to gently spread filling evenly all the way to the edges. Sprinkle with reserved lime zest and freeze until filling is set, at least 8 hours.
  • Do Ahead: Pie can be made 3 days ahead. Cover; keep chilled. Let soften in fridge 30 minutes before slicing.

Time 4h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup finely crushed pretzels
¼ cup white sugar
⅓ cup margarine, melted
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
⅓ cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
2 tablespoons tequila
1 tablespoon orange liqueur
3 drops green food coloring, or as needed
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 lime, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Mix pretzels and sugar together in a bowl; stir in margarine until evenly incorporated. Spoon mixture into a 9-inch pie plate; press into bottom and up sides of plate to form a firm, even crust.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
  • Mix sweetened condensed milk, limeade concentrate, tequila, orange liqueur, and green food coloring in a large bowl.
  • Beat cream in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into sweetened condensed milk mixture. Spoon filling into cooled crust.
  • Cover pie with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 4 hours. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving; garnish with lime slices.
