The ingredients for Tequila-Lime Frosting are:

1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2? cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons tequila
Pinch of coarse salt

Here is how you make Tequila-Lime Frosting:

To make the frosting, whip the butter on medium-high speed of an electric mixer using the whisk attachment for 5 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium-low, and gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing and scraping the sides of the bowl until all is incorporated. Give it a mix on medium speed for about 30 seconds. Add the lemon juice, tequila and salt mix on medium-high speed until incorporated and fluffy. If the frosting appears a bit too soft, add some additional sugar, one spoonful at a time until desired consistency is reached. Frost cupcakes and garnish, if desired, with lime zest, an additional sprinkling of salt and a lime wedge.*Note: If you would prefer to not use liquor in these cupcakes, you can absolutely omit it from both the cupcakes and the frosting with no problem. If you do omit it, I would add 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract to the frosting.Serving Size: Makes enough frosting for up to 16 cupcakesNumber of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user HUNNY_B1.
