PHOENIX
Uniquely Southwestern, this refreshingly sweet-tart cocktail is from The Phoenician resort and was published in Gwen Walters' Par Fork! The Golf Resort Cookbook (Pen & Fork Communications, 2002). Prickly pear syrup is available in specialty markets or you can find it on the Internet.

Prickly Pear Margarita
3 tbsp. quality tequila
2 tbsp. Triple Sec
1 tbsp. prickly pear syrup
1/2 cup fresh lemonade
1 lime wedge

Pour all ingredients into a shaker or a blender. Mix well. Salt the rim of a margarita glass (dip in a little lemonade or lime juice). Add ice and pour in margarita. Garnish with lime wedge.
