I've made this a couple times...super easy and everyone always loves it. Next time I'm going to switch it up and call it a Creamsicle pie....I'm going to exchange the lemon-lime Kool-Aid for orange and use orange juice instead of lime and I'm thinking probably a graham crust instead of the pretzels....mmmmhmmmmmm!

I tried this recipe when it came out in the Food and Family Magazine. If you love Key Lime Pie don't try this. It's bland and a fake green color. The only thing i enjoyed was the pretzel crust.

This is the best Margarita Pie I've ever tasted. A friend of mine made this and I had to beg to get the recipe. I would hate to lose this one. The sweet and Salty combination is like a fiesta in your mouth. My recipe was a duplicate and removed. Glad to see it's on Zaar. 5 stars for sure. ~V
