  • 2/3 cup frozen (thawed) margarita drink mix (from 10-ounce can)
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons grated lime peel

    Serve dip with strawberries.

  • For an authentic margarita flavor, use 2 tablespoons tequila and 2 tablespoons orange juice instead of the 1/4 cup orange juice.
  • To reduce the fat to 4g and the calories to 60 per serving, use reduced-fat cream cheese in place of the regular cream cheese and 1 cup frozen (thawed) fat-free whipped topping instead of the whipping cream.
  • Rub the rim of a serving bowl with a lemon, lime or orange half, then dip the rim of the bowl into a shallow dish of colored sugar.
