Margarita Cilantro Rice

I love rice!  In fact, they grow it in the fields around Anahuac and I have hopes of seeing how rice is harvested. 

I was playing around with recipes and came up with this one just before our move.  I thought you might enjoy making it for your family.

What you need:
1/2 cup margarita (not the mix)
1 1/4 cup water
juice of 2 limes
zest of 2 limes
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 cups instant rice

How to put it together:

Zest limes.  Chop cilantro.  Juice the limes.
Place the lime juice, water and margarita into sauce pan and bring to a boil.  Add the zest, cilantro and rice to the boiling liquid.  Place a lid over the pot and set aside, removing from the heat.  Let set for 5 minutes or until the moisture is absorbed into the rice.  Fluff with a fork before serving.
