Fresh fish marinated in the natural acid of lime and lemon juice is the main ingredient! This salad is delicious if you love cerviche. The tequila adds a kick to the salad but the dish is just fine without it.

How to make it
- Combine lime juice and tequila in saucepan. Bring to a simmer; remove from heat.
- Add the mint leaves and cool 1 hour.
- Remove mint leaves and pour liquid directly over the raw fish.
- Refrigerate for an hour, stirring to mix after 30 minutes and continue to chill. (The acid from the lime and lemon juice will cook the fish!)
- Drain liquid.
- Combine fish with diced vegetables.
- Mix well and serve!
- *You can serve this in cocktail glasses with greens of your choice or on top of mixed greens.
