Strawberry Margarita 

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe strawberries hulled and sliced
  • 1 teaspoon agave nectar or 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 ounces tequila
  • 1 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 3/4 ounce orange liqueur such as Triple Sec, Grand Marnier, or Cointreau
  • lime wheel for garnish

Instructions

  • Muddle strawberries in a bottom of a cocktail shaker with the agave nectar or sugar, until the berries are almost completely liquified.
  • Add the tequila, lime juice and orange liqueur. Fill the shaker about halfway with ice, and shake for 15 to 20 seconds, until the mixture is very cold.
  • Remove the lid and strain through a julep strainer or coarse mesh strainer into a chilled coupe glass, or short tumbler half full of ice. Garnish with a lime wheel.
