Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
  • 1 pound strawberries, stems removed and halved
  • 2 oz tequila
  • 1 oz Grand Marnier
  • 2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 oz strawberry puree
  • 1 1/2 oz mint-infused simple syrup
  • Margarita salt for rimming the glass
  • Halved strawberries for garnish
  • Fresh mint for garnish
  • Lime wedges for rimming the glass

Instructions

  1. Begin by making the mint simple syrup. Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the mint leaves, then remove from heat and let it cool completely before removing the mint.
  2. Prepare the strawberry juice by blending the halved strawberries until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl, using a spoon or spatula to push it through if needed, until you are left with juice.
  3. To assemble the margarita, moisten the edge of a glass with a lime wedge and rim it with margarita salt. Fill the glass with crushed ice.
  4. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the tequila, Grand Marnier, lime juice, strawberry puree, and simple syrup. Shake for 30 seconds, then pour into the prepared glass.
  5. Garnish the margarita with halved strawberries, a sprig of mint, and a lime wedge, and enjoy immediately!
