    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

Serves/Makes: 6 drinks
Difficulty: 2
Prep Time: 7 minutes

Ingredients:

Juice of 1 orange
Juice of 1 meyer lemon
Juice of 1 lime (save the lime for rim)
2 cups red guava nectar*
3/4 cup gold tequila
2 to 3 T lime simple syrup*
Salt for rim
Ice

Directions:

After juicing fruit use the lime halves to moisten your martini glasses. Pour salt onto a desert plate, turn moistened glasses upside down and twirl in salt liberally.

Fill blender half full with ice cubes. Add orange, meyer lemon and lime juice into blender. Pour in red guava nectar, tequila and 2 T of lime simple syrup. Blend well till ice is crushed.

Taste for sweetness and if too tart for you add an additional tablespoon of lime simple syrup.

Pour into rimmed glasses and enjoy!

*To make lime simple syrup in small sauce pan add 1 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup fresh lime juice and 1/2 cup water. Cook till sugar is dissolved and mixture is clear. Cool before using. Store in plastic squeeze bottle for easy use.

*Red Guava Nectar is what gives this drink its beautiful color. Most guava juices are pale yellow but I find the red one is sweeter and obviously prettier. The only place I have been able to find it is at Wal-Mart and it's awesome. It is under their Great Value brand and is in the refrigerated juice section.

Cooks Notes: I try to make my husband a new drink every Sunday and this one rocks. I use the guava nectar all the time in my Deluxe Hot Apple Cider and love it. We couldn't be happier in finding another purpose for it. I would love to know what you guys think. Thanks
