Sorry! I didn't realize how colorless this picture was!
I'm not sure I have ever had a REAL margarita. Every time I went to Chi Chi's Mexican Restaurant, I got one of the specialty flavored margaritas. They were kinda like Slurpees for adults. Yummy! So.....REAL margaritas never looked or seemed all that fun to me. = ) I used lime, sweet and salt so it kinda sounded margarita like to me; hence Margarita Apples. Easy to make if you have Lime Essential Oil on hand.
Margarita Apples
Ingredients:
1 Fuji Apple
2 drops Lime Essential Oil
1/2 tsp Honey
Sprinkles of Salt and Cinnamon
*Sprinkles of granulated sugar optional
I use my handy-dandy Pampered Chef Apple Slicer to cut the apples. Use a glass plate or bowl. I use honey as a carrier for the oil. Put the honey on the plate/bowl, and drop the 2 drops of oil in and mix it around. Put your apples slices on the plate/bowl and smear them around to get them covered with the honey-oil mix. Now sprinkle a tiny amount of salt, and sprinkle cinnamon so they look nicely sprinkled on = ) AND if you are using sugar, sprinkle sugar on now too. That's it. A pretty healthy snack.
Alternatives:
Hot Shot Apples: Use "Immune Boosting Blend", NO Salt, and use cinnamon (maybe cinnamon oil for extra HOT =)
Lemon Drop Apples: Use Lemon with or without salt, sprinkle with sugar, and NO cinnamon.
Enjoy! Joelle
