Coconut Lime Margaritas
I recently had my first EVER coconut lime margarita, and it was life changing!! I mean, I’ve been squeezing limes over freshly chopped coconut bits since I was a lil niña, but for some reason never put them in a drink! The flavors take me back to a tropical vacation on a sizzling day in Mexico, so I’m officially proclaiming this summer, the summer of Coconut Lime Margaritas!

I am so extra sometimes, so I actually toasted my coconut flakes over the stove top! Just add a tsp of coconut oil into a pan and stir the coconut flakes around until they turn a light brown. It adds 5 minutes to the recipe, but definitely worth it!
