I love that these bars can be made ahead of time. It makes them perfect for parties or busy weeknights.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover limes. I always have a few limes on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

The recipe was easy to follow and the bars turned out great! However, I would recommend using a different type of tequila. The one I used was a bit too strong for my taste.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my friends loved them.

I've tried many margarita bar recipes, but this one is by far the best. The bars are the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and the crust is flaky and delicious.
