strawberry margaritas

I know you all have been waiting on bated breath for this post and I was right there with you. Trust me, it was damn near torturous knowing I had booze in the house but couldn’t drink it.

It was no easy task thinking up what I’d make with the flavored booze but then I remembered the general affinity for strawberry margs and had an epiphany. I’d make a girly drink less girly. Is that even possible? I thought I’d at least attempt it.

Let me tell you this; the strawberry infused tequila I made is the bomb dot com and a half. I’m not going to toot my own horn that I can make a damn good drink, but will rather give all the credit to the tequila. Ah-maz-ing.

I made these with three simple ingredients and used some fresh strawberries (organic of course), limes and salt as garnish. These are obviously 100% mandatory or you’ll have a mediocre marg and that isn’t how we do it in my family or on this blog.

Strawberry Margaritas:
3 oz strawberry infused blanco tequila
1 oz lime juice*
1.5 oz Cointreau (or triple sec or Grand Marnier…whatever)

Makes one drink and can easily be doubled, tripled, quadruped or whatever blows your skirt up.

*Since it is a royal pain in the ass to juice enough limes to make some margs, I fully support using bottled lime juice. I prefer the bottled key lime, but I leave this up to you completely.
