Most Excellent! I made this exactly as the recipe called out and it turned out fabulous! I have to admit that while Margaritas are good, they are not my favorite drink. This however, is a perfect texture, perfect taste and is time consuming (wait time), but VERY easy to make! Cinco de Mayo here I come! Made for Spring PAC 2008! Okay, so I made this again (and again) and had 2 small scoops left. I put one scoop in the bottom of a short glass and filled it with Gingerale. Good that way too!
