The El Paso Chile Company Margarita Cookbook

by W Park Kerr

The El Paso Chile Company Margarita Cookbook Cover

Staff Pick

Frozen watermelon Margaritas. Last summer I scooped out and froze many bags of watermelon so that my friends and I could enjoy this chilled treat all winter. Good thing summer is back on its way; I'm out of watermelon and ready to stock up again. Aside from the dozens of tequila cocktail recipes and tips, this book also includes a number of recipes for tequila inspired snacks <96> Tequila Chipotle Shrimp, Grilled Margarita Chicken Morsels with Salsa-Sour Cream Dip, and so forth <96> but frankly I haven't got past the drinks yet.

Publisher Comments:

Margarita--the drink that's a party in a glass! Whip up an icy batch of America's favorite cocktail, spike the salsa with some tequila, too, and you're well on your way to a really good time, down-by-the-border-style. Now all you need is the perfect margarita, and happily, you've come to the right place. W. Park Kerr from the El Paso Chile Company brings you a hot 'n' cool collection of Margaritas and other tequila-boosted recipes for every taste and every lively occasion. Let the fiesta begin!

As fearless and creative at the bar as he is in the kitchen, W. Park Kerr knows there's more than one way to shake a margarita. In this book he tells the (tall) tale of the original margarita; introduces Margarita 101 for those just getting started; then boldly goes where few other cantinamasters have, offering Passion-Peach Margaritas, Frozen Watermelon Margaritas, and Pineapple Margaritas, to name but a few. If you like your tequila straight, follow his lead and add the zests of a few oranges, lemons, and limes to a bottle of your favorite brand. Let it steep for two days, then sip it icy cold from the freezer. and#161;Excellente!
