Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 lb green or red prickly pear fruit
  • 1 cup lime juice
  • 1 cup tequila
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 4 cups crushed ice
  • thin lime slices (optional)

Directions:

  1. Cut ends from prickly pears. Cut a 1/8-inch-deep lengthwise slit through peel on each fruit. Pull back peel and remove from pulp; discard peel. Cut fruit pulp into 1/2-inch chunks.
  2. In a blender, combine half of all these ingredients: prickly pear chunks, lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, and sugar; whirl until smooth. Add half the ice and whirl until blended. Pour into glasses slowly, leaving seeds behind. Discard seeds.
  3. Repeat step 2 with remaining pear chunks, lime juice, tequila, liqueur, sugar, and ice.
  4. Garnish with lime slices.
