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.
