This is a great recipe for a quick and easy salad dressing. It's also very versatile - I've used it on salads, grilled vegetables, and even as a marinade for chicken.

I've tried many tequila vinaigrettes before, but this one is by far the best. It's the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory.

This dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less lime juice next time.

I was hesitant to try this dressing because I'm not a big fan of tequila, but I was pleasantly surprised. The tequila flavor is very subtle and it really complements the other ingredients.
