This is a great summer pie Reelani. I served it at our 4th of July party. It was very well received by my guests. The filling was smooth and creamy. Had a nice margarita taste. The saltiness of the pretzel crust was a good idea and went well with the filling. Thanks for posting.

Oh my!! This is the ultimate! The filling is smooth amd creamy and tastes just like a sweet strawberry margarita. The pretzel crust is a great contrast. Easy to put together! I made fresh whipped cream for the top. The perfect dessert to impress your guests. Thanks for sharing Ree!

This was easy enough to make and pretty tasty..only thing I found was it was extremely sweet. I brought it to a family event on the 4th of July and got the same comments it was good but really sweet.

this was fantastic!! I left out the liquor as it was for the kids as well, and I had to use 3 scoops of softened vanilla ice cream in place of the cool whip, as I thought I had some but didn't! We made ours in a square 8x8 pan and pressed the crust only on the bottom, awesome!

This was great. I put my strawberries through the blender so there wouldn't be any chunks, and I used real whipping cream. Absolutely yummmmmmy.
