Just like the Bahamas!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I drank a lot of these in the new Mesa Grill in the Atlantis on Paradise Island, Bahamas. They are the pefect blend of sweet... and tart. I also love them on the rocks similiar to a martini. The minute I got home I was trying to find the recipe. My fiance' and I are going back in two months and I can't wait to have dinner there again. Bobby never disappoints!Read more

Couldn't find any cactus pear juice at my usual grocery store, but found a desert pear gourmet flavoring. That's what I used... and I must say I LOVE this margarita! Thanks Bobby!Read more
