Ingredients:

Serving

dressing
1/4 cup fresh tangerine or orange juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tbsp tequila, preferably gold
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tsp honey
1 garlic clove
salt and fresh-ground pepper to taste
salad
3 large bunches watercress , tough stems removed
2 tangerines or 1 small orange, sectioned , membranes removed, and sections halved
3/4 cup diced jicama (see note below )
1/2 cup thin- sliced mild red radishes
1/4 cup sliced green onions

Directions:

To make the dressing, combine the tangerine juice, vegetable oil, tequila, lime juice, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor until smooth. (The dressing can be made a day ahead, but shake well before using.)
In a serving bowl, toss the watercress with enough dressing to coat well. Toss with tangerines, jicama, radishes, and green onions. Serve immediately with additional dressing on the side.
NOTE: What is Jicama? Jicama is a crispy, sweet, edible root that resembles a turnip in physical appearance, although the plants are not related. Jicama has been cultivated in South America for centuries, and the vegetable is quite popular in Mexican cuisine. Jicama has a unique flavor that lends itself well to salads, salsas, and vegetable platters.
