- 1 tsp lime zest
- ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
- whole strawberries for serving
Instructions
- Beat cream cheese, margarita mix, orange juice, and lime peel in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth.

Notes
If you can't find the frozen mix, an easy substitute is using 1/4 cup of margarita mix from the drink aisle—the kind that’s typically used for cocktails.
