Tequila Twist

By Chelsie Kenyon, About.com

This recipe makes 5-6 shooters.

Prep Time: 3 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 5 oz. tequila
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice concentrate (or other favorite citrus juice concentrate)
  • finely grated rind from 1/2 of a lime
  • 5 strawberries or orange wedges
  • sugar
  • ice

Preparation:

Prepare 5-6 large shot glasses in the freezer until frosty. Use a lime wedge to moisten the rim of each glass and dip in a small plateful of sugar. Return to freezer for later use or use immediately.

In a shaker combine tequila, orange juice and lime rind. Add ice to fill. Shake vigorously for 10-20 seconds until juice concentrate is completely dissolved. Pour into each glass and "chase" with a strawberry, or an orange wedge.
