If you want more aged flavor, go with a reposado tequila. If you prefer a smokier flavor, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-mezcal\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-mezcal\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mezcal<\/a> instead of tequila.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Frozen strawberries:<\/strong> Frozen strawberries are key in this drink. They act like ice cubes when blended and give the drink that slushy texture we all love. Use your favorite store-bought brand or some you popped in the freezer yourself. (<em>Psst:<\/em> Here&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/freezing-fresh-picked-strawberries\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/freezing-fresh-picked-strawberries\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">how to freeze fresh strawberries<\/a>.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Triple Sec:<\/strong> Triple Sec is an orange liqueur that gives margaritas an extra-citrusy edge. You can also substitute cura\u00e7ao, Cointreau or Grand Marnier for the same effect. There are a few differences between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cointreau-vs-triple-sec-vs-grand-marnier\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cointreau-vs-triple-sec-vs-grand-marnier\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cointreau vs. Triple Sec vs. Grand Marnier<\/a>, including price. When you&#8217;re blending a fruit-forward margarita, it&#8217;s OK to stick with the cheaper stuff.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lime juice:<\/strong> Limes are essential in margaritas, and it&#8217;s just not quite the same with any other citrus. Make sure to use fresh limes for the tastiest margarita.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make a sugar rim (optional)<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1958573\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Strawberry-Margarita_TOHX25_257584_DR_01_24_4b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Rubbing Lemon on rim of the glass\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>If desired, moisten the rim of a cocktail glass with a lime wedge.

If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar on a plate; dip rim in sugar. Fill glass with ice. In a small dish, sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over 1\/4 cup fresh or thawed sliced strawberries. Muddle gently. Let stand 10 minutes. In an empty cocktail shaker, combine tequila, Triple Sec, lime juice and strawberry mixture. Fill with ice; cover and shake until frost forms on the outside of the shaker, 15 to 20 seconds. Strain into prepared glass. Garnish with lime wedge.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add basil:<\/strong> Fresh basil is a great pairing with strawberry, and it gives this drink a refreshing kick. To add basil, muddle it with the strawberry mixture in an on-the-rocks margarita, or toss it into the blender with the frozen marg. And for either option, you can garnish your glasses with fresh basil leaves.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it a virgin drink:<\/strong> If you love the strawberry but don&#8217;t want the alcohol, you can still make a delicious drink. Ditch the tequila and Triple Sec, add orange juice instead, and blend everything together. Pour into a glass, and top it with some sparkling water.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Change up the flavors:<\/strong> There are all sorts of delicious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/flavored-margaritas\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/flavored-margaritas\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flavored margaritas<\/a>.

The slushy part will only last as long as the ice stays icy. If they&#8217;re not stored in the freezer, the slushy texture will melt; it will still be tasty but won&#8217;t be frozen.<\/p>\n<h2>Can you make strawberry margaritas ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>To make strawberry margaritas ahead of time, blend the ingredients together, and store the margarita mixture in the freezer. With the alcohol in there, the mixture shouldn&#8217;t freeze completely, and it should maintain its slushy texture. If needed, blend the frozen mixture a bit to loosen it up before pouring into a glass.<\/p>\n<h2>Strawberry Margarita Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1958578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Strawberry-Margarita_TOHX25_257584_DR_01_24_9b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Strawberry Margarita served on black tray with strawberries and mint leaves\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How can you keep strawberry margaritas cold longer?<\/h3>\n<p>To keep strawberry margaritas cold longer, start with cold ingredients. In addition to using frozen strawberries, store your liquor in the freezer ahead of time, and use when ready.<\/p>\n<h3>What tequila is best for strawberry margaritas?<\/h3>\n<p>The best tequila for strawberry margaritas is blanco or silver tequila, which is 100% de agave or puro de agave. My favorite tequila for margaritas is Espolon Blanco Tequila, but some other crowd-pleasers are Casamigos Blanco and Patron Silver.<\/p>\n<h3>How can you make strawberry margaritas sweeter?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">To make strawberry margaritas sweeter, consider adding some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/simple-syrup\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/simple-syrup\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">simple syrup<\/a>, honey or agave syrup to the blender. Depending on the variety used, strawberries can vary in sweetness. Adding a little sugar to the mixture never hurts.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A strawberry margarita is made just like a classic margarita, but the strawberries take it to
