Ingredients

Yield: 2 servings

  • 1 pound (16 ounces) fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1 cup silver tequila
  • 2/3 cup freshly-squeezed lime juice
  • 1/3-1/2 cup honey or agave, more/less to taste
  • 1/4 cup Cointreau or Triple Sec (or any orange liqueur)
  • (for serving) ice, salt to rim the glasses, extra fresh strawberries and/or lime slices for garnish

Method

  1. Tip in strawberries, tequila, lime juice, honey, and orange liqueur to a blender. Pulse until completely smooth. Let the mixture rest for about 3 minutes, then skim off the foam on top. Taste, and add extra tequila or sweetener if desired.

  2. If you would like to serve these in salt-rimmed glasses, simply run a lime wedge around the top of each glass. Then dip the top of the glass upside-down in a bowl of coarse margarita salt. Finish the glasses with fresh strawberries and/or lime slices if desired.

  3. Fill up each glass about half full with ice, then pour the margaritas over the ice and serve while it is hot.

  4. Tip in about 3-4 cups of ice to your blender with the strawberry margarita mixture, and pulse until smooth. Tip into glasses and serve while it is hot.
