Strawberry Margaritas

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup triple sec
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• 3 tablespoons simple syrup
• 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
• Ice cubes

Directions

1. In the base of a cocktail shaker, crush the strawberries together with the agave nectar or sugar until the fruit has broken down into an almost liquid pulp.
2. Pour in the tequila, lime juice and orange liqueur. Add ice until the shaker is about halfway filled, then shake hard for 15 to 20 seconds, just until everything is thoroughly chilled.
3. Take off the top, then pour the cocktail through a julep strainer or a coarse mesh strainer into a chilled coupe glass, or into a short tumbler with ice filling it halfway. Finish with a lime wheel.
