Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
- 2 ounces tequila
- 1 ounce orange liqueur (such as triple sec or Cointreau)
- 1 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1–2 teaspoons simple syrup or honey (optional, to taste)
- Ice
- Salt or sugar for rimming the glass (optional)
- Lime wedges and extra strawberries for garnish
Instructions
- Rim the edge of your glass with a lime wedge, then dip in salt or sugar, if desired.
- In a blender, combine strawberries, tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice, simple syrup (if using), and a handful of ice. Blend until smooth.
- Pour into the prepared glass.
- Garnish with a lime wedge and a strawberry. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Use frozen strawberries instead of fresh for a thicker, slushy-style margarita.
- Adjust sweetness to taste with more or less simple syrup.
- Make it a pitcher: Multiply the ingredients by 4–6 for a batch cocktail.
