This light, tangy dessert flavoured with tequila and lime makes a refreshingly special finish to any festive meal. For that extra flourish, serve the mousse garnished with finely grated lime rind in sugared margarita or martini glasses.

Ingredients
Method
In heatproof bowl over saucepan of hot (not boiling) water, whisk together eggs, egg yolks, sugar, lime rind and juice, and tequila; cook, whisking often, until thickened and mixture falls in ribbons when whisk is lifted, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
Add white chocolate; stir until melted. Pour into clean bowl; place plastic wrap directly on surface. Refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 3 days.)
In bowl, whip cream; fold half into lime mixture. Fold in remaining whipped cream just until combined. Spoon into glasses or dessert dishes. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.)
