Strawberry-Mango Margarita Dessert

Strawberry-Mango Margarita Dessert

As in a frozen margarita, salt works wonders against tangy fruit flavors in this pie, with tropical fruit filling and a surprising pretzel crust.

Expert Tips

Try using lemon sorbet instead of the mango.

To make cutting the pie easier, wait to place the fruit skewers in the dessert until after slicing it.

    This dessert had a very tropical and refreshing taste it was sweet, yet it had a tart flavored to it. I am definitely making this dessert as one of favorites.
