Steps:
- Combine sugar with 1 tsp lime zest. Rub the rims of 4-6 margarita glasses with lime wedges to moisten, crunch into granulated sugar mixture, and place in the freezer.
- In a separate bowl, combine remaining lime zest, condensed milk, Triple Sec, tequila, and 1/3 cup lime juice. Set aside. Whip cream until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into tequila mixture, working carefully to keep the air in the whipped cream. Spoon into prepared frozen glasses, making sure not to disturb the sugared rims. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your mousse, so be sure to use the freshest fruits, cream, and chocolate you can find.
- Chill your ingredients: Before you start making the mousse, chill your cream, bowl, and beaters. This will help the mousse to set more quickly and smoothly.
- Beat the cream until stiff peaks form: This is essential for creating a light and fluffy mousse. If you don't beat the cream long enough, the mousse will be too soft and runny.
- Fold in the other ingredients gently: Once you've whipped the cream, fold in the other ingredients gently. Over-mixing can cause the mousse to deflate.
- Chill the mousse before serving: This will help it to set and firm up. You can chill the mousse for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
Conclusion:
Margarita mousse is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is light and fluffy, with a tart and tangy flavor. The mousse is also very easy to make, and can be prepared in just a few minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give margarita mousse a try. You won't be disappointed!
