Ingredients

  • 1 cup finely crushed pretzels
  • 0.25 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup margarine, melted
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 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

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