Fresh strawberries combine well with tequila in this fruity margarita. (The strawberries makes this cocktail viscous, so sugar syrup is preferable to agave...
I don’t like frozen cocktails except it is really hot outside, but have to admit that the fruit taste is better. So I tried today to blend the raspberries in the shaker with an hand blender and continue with the recipe for shaking. At last for me it is the solution.
Today I had not enough strawberries left, so I used raspberry syrup instead of rich syrup. This also makes a nice variant which one could extend to other (a.e. black) fruits.
We just discussed wether a strawberry margarita or a strawberry daiquiri is preferable and agreed the a strawberry margarita is winning because the tequila blanco give such a nice contrast to the soft strawberry aromas.
Our strawberries were the first of the season and not as sweet as later strawberries. This was a great cocktail. The tastes are subtle and delicate. Would make again the next time I have fresh strawberries.
