Tequila-Key Lime Meringue Pie

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons melted butter
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 8 large egg yolks
• 2 (14-oz.) cans sweetened condensed milk
• 3/4 cup Key lime juice
• 2 tablespoons lime zest
• 1 tablespoon tequila
• 3 tablespoons cold water
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2/3 cup boiling water
• 4 large egg whites
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0. Stir together first 5 ingredients; firmly press mixture on bottom and up sides of a lightly greased 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie plate. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to a wire rack, and cool completely (about 30 minutes).
2. Whisk together egg yolks and next 4 ingredients in a large bowl; pour mixture into cooled crust. Bake at 350u0b0 for 25 minutes or until set. Cool completely on a wire rack (about 1 hour).
3. Preheat oven to 375u0b0. Whisk 3 Tbsp. cold water into cornstarch in a 1-qt. saucepan; whisk in 2/3 cup boiling water. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, 1 minute or until a thick gel forms. Remove from heat; cool completely (about 30 minutes).
4. Beat 4 egg whites and cream of tartar at medium-high speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer, using whisk attachment, until foamy. Gradually add 1 cup sugar; beat until glossy, stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla and salt. Slowly beat in cornstarch mixture. Beat 3 minutes.
5. Spread meringue over cooled pie, and bake at 375u0b0 for 15 minutes or until meringue is golden brown. Transfer to wire rack, and cool completely (about 45 minutes). Serve at room temperature, or cover and chill 8 to 24 hours.
