Kiwi, Peach, Mango Margaritas

ON THE MENU: a summery margarita-smoothie with fresh kiwi, peach, and mango (and a little jose cuervo and triple sec).

LOGISTICS: On a whim we decided to concoct this drink to accompany our gazpacho. We made up the recipe ourselves, and it was so good! We didn't make the drinks very strong, then again the thickness of the smoothie hid the taste of the tequila (not that we really needed that hehe).

We included:
- 1 peach, with skin
- 1 peeled mango
- 2 peeled kiwis
- 1/2 cup lemonade
- 3 shots of tequila
- 1 BIG shot of triple sec (we didn't do any measuring so add alcohol to your taste)
- 3 large handfuls of ice

We chopped up all the fruit, and then threw everything into the blender except for the alcohol. Once the smoothie was made, we blended in the tequila and triple sec. Serve in margarita glasses. YUM!

Keep in mind that these are really thick and filling, so make sure you have a light meal (like gazpacho!) to partner with it.


TABLE TALK:
- how the Jose Cuervo was mysteriously lighter than it should be (Aaron??)
- how we could have definitely added more alcohol, like if it was for a party
- tattoos
- searching the market for a friend with a boat. contact us if you know of any :)
