They're delicious. A perfect blend of salty and sweet and citrusy. And very pretty with their flecks of orange and green and golden salt/sugar rim. Plus, I obviously had to use the now peel-less citrus and extra tequila to make an actual margarita to go with them. The things I do for baked goods...

To add a bit more decorative color, I combined 1 tBSP each of orange and yellow sugar and 1/2 TBSP of green sugar, then sprinkled @ an 1/8 of a tsp on top of each cookie before baking. It added a hint of the margarita colors :)) Made these margarita cookies for a cookie swap and the got rave reviews!

I used some fancy Celtic sea salt from the bulk section at the grocery store and key limes instead of regular limes, but seriously, fantastic. It reminds me of this drink a guy I knew used to make by throwing a bag of sliced key limes, a bag of sugar, and an entire bottle of tequila into a milk jug before shaking it up and pouring it over ice. But anyway, I've been tempted to try a Tom Collins cookie with gin and lemon zest. After all, that's basically a lemon cookie with a hint of juniper! Just tried these, and they are AMAZING.

The first time I used a mixture of Alessi fine sea salt mixed with Sugar in the Raw to coat the rolls of dough. The second time I used Maldon salt and Sugar in the Raw--what a difference the Maldon made! These cookies are absolutely beautiful and delicious with a nice, tender crumb.

I made them with rum instead of tequilla and a splash of lime juice... skipped the salt though and just used raw sugar. They were well loved at our circus tailgate party ;-) YUM!
