Margarita Scones

April 10, 2014

  • 10

You will love that you can take these Margarita Scones with you anywhere you’d like because you won’t need to hide it in a paper bag and look like you are sneaking around with some unlawful substance you’re not supposed to have on the street.   

Whip these out with pride… they are so yummy!

Margarita Scones @createdbydiane

Margaritas are my favorite drink!

I do often wish I could walk around with one, it must be that delicious lime taste along with the salt. I have mentioned before how much I love salt, right?

These scones are the perfect combination of all the wonderful taste of a great Margarita.

If you like lemon scones,these will give you a run for your money!

I didn’t forget one of the best part of eating scones, it’s curd….if you have lemon scones, lemon curd is delicious.

Margarita Curd with Margarita Scones @createdbydiane

For these Margarita Scones Margarita Curd was a must have.

Fruit Curd is so delicious, scones are almost naked with out them! It’s like pudding so if you haven’t had any yet…. look out you’re bound to lick it off the spoon and enjoy.

Margaritas are a classic flavor that you’ll now enjoy in a whole new way!

Strawberry Margarita Pie

Everyday Cranberry Margaritas! great all year long, but look like a holiday treat!

Margarita cupcakes a truly great baked treat!

So you can see how this will be much easier than trying to carry a drink with you all day that will  spill on a moments notice!

So we have covered public intoxication and nakedness today, kind of out of the realm of normal here. But fun none the less.
