Mock Margarita
Serves 4

4 cups lemon soda or carbonated lemon-lime beverage

4 tablespoons sugar

1 cup fresh squeezed lime juice

coarse salt

crushed ice

1.   Pour soda into small cubed ice cube tray and freeze at least ½ hour or more.

2.   Place frozen soda cubes into blender.

3.   Add lime juice and sugar.

4.   Blend until well mixed and crushed like a slushy.

5.   Rub a lime around rim of glass.

6.   Dip the glass lip down into salt.

7.   Add some crushed ice to each glass.  Pour mixture over crushed ice.

            You can make this drink more festive looking by adding a drop of green food coloring to the blender.  The result will be a more of a lime color.  Enjoy!
