After Phil and I went on our honeymoon, I wanted to create a recipe from some of the things we ate and drank in Mexico that we were very fond of and would help remind us of the greatest 7 nights and 8 days of our lives. This recipe nails it. The Jicama to start, we were taught to eat it there with fresh lime juice and chili powder. That brings up the lime, all those limes in all that Corona on tap. That's ALL they had and fresh limes in bowls sitting out everywhere. Oh and the endless margaritas. The lime sour like goodness in those freebies. The cilantro and bell pepper on the endless buffet.
