This dressing is a bit too sour for my taste. I would recommend using less lime juice.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dressing turned out too oily. I think I would use less oil next time.

This dressing is a great way to use up leftover tequila. I always have a bottle of tequila in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.
