Recipe Notes

Once you taste my homemade graham cracker crust, you'll never go back to store bought again, but if you're in a hurry, you can use a store bought graham cracker crust.

Tomorrow you’ll want to check out my recipe for Frozen Margaritas, and you’ll be ready to kick off the weekend in style!
