Ingredients
- 4 strawberries, diced
- 1 ounce simple syrup
- 3 ounces Blanco or Silver tequila
- 1 ½ ounces Cointreau or triple sec
- 2 ounces lime juice, about 1 lime
- Sparkling water (optional), to top off
- Salt, optional for rimming
Instructions
Prep:
- If you enjoy a salted glass, prep the rim of your glasses by rubbing a lime wedge along the rim. Dip in tequila salt, and set aside.
Make the marg:
- Place the diced strawberries and the simple syrup inside a cocktail shaker. Use a muddler to smash them until all the berries have released all their juices and it resembles a strawberry paste.
- Add the tequila, triple sec or Cointreau, lime juice, and a handful of ice. Shake vigorously until the sides are fully frosted.
Serve:
- Fill the two prepared glasses with ice. Strain the strawberry margarita through the strainer and pour it into the prepared glasses. Top off with sparkling water, to make it a taller cocktail. Garnish with a fresh strawberry and lime wedge.
