What Is A Strawberita? How Do You Make One? Strawberry margaritas are to summer what watermelon is to summer: the ultimate fruit for keeping cool. The tart and sweet flavors of strawberries pair so well with tequila that they make for a drink that's seriously hard to beat. While the classic strawberry margarita is delicious, there's another way you can get your fix—and it comes with a fun twist! It's called a Strawberita (it's like a Strawberry Margarita but with "Berita" instead of "margarita"), and here's how you can make one: To learn more about Strawberita, check out this "Strawberita". Let's begin our discussion of the main topic. A Strawberry Margarita Is The Perfect Summer Drink. A Strawberry Margarita is a great drink for summer. It's fruity, sweet, and of course, tastes like tequila! There are many recipes for this cocktail out there, but let's get in the spirit of the season with this simple recipe. 1 part tequila 1 part triple sec or vodka (optional) 2 parts lemonade or limeade (preferably frozen) ice cubes (optional) Put all ingredients in a glass and stir until well combined. If you want to make it even more refreshing, add a splash of soda! How To Make A Strawberita. To make a Strawberita, you will need: ● ● A blender that is very cold. The colder the better! Lime juice and simple syrup (see recipe below). Add 2 tablespoons of each to start with and then adjust for taste. Strawberries—1 cup of chopped strawberries should be enough for this recipe; however, if you want your Strawberita to be extra pinkish-red, feel free to add more! ● To actually make your cocktail: Add all ingredients into the blender, starting with lime juice and simple syrup first (the colder they are when added in, the easier it will blend), followed by strawberries last so that they stay whole until just before blending time ends. Blend until smooth; pour into a pitcher; serve immediately alongside some ice cubes on hot summer days or nights!
You'll Need These Ingredients. You'll need:* 1/2 cup tequila.* 1/2 cup triple sec.* 1/4 cup simple syrup (or sugar).* 1/4 cup lime juice.* 1 cup strawberries, sliced Step 1: Blend The Liquor With Some Ice. The first step to making a Strawberita is blending the liquor with some ice. You'll need to use a blender for this, which is an important tool if you want your drink to be smooth and creamy. Place the crushed ice in the blender first, then add anything else you want to blend (like sugar, fruit juice, or soda water). Blend until all of those ingredients are combined and the mixture has been thoroughly blended together into one thick and frothy drink! While it's important that you make sure everything's blended well before adding any extra ingredients like alcohol or soda pop, once that's done go ahead and add them too—that's what gives your drink its signature sweet-tart lemonade flavor! Step 2: Add The Lime Juice And Simple Syrup, Then Blend Again. Add the lime juice and simple syrup to a blender. The amount of each depends on how tart you like your Strawberitas, but it’s generally somewhere between a tablespoon and a quarter cup of each. Blend until smooth. Now add in your strawberries, then blend again until smooth and creamy. If you like an extra-creamy drink, this is also the time to add some ice—just don’t overdo it! Pour into glasses filled with ice cubes (or if you have them, these awesome frozen margarita glasses) and top with tequila or vodka if desired (I recommend Patron Silver). Step 3: Add The Strawberries And Blend One More Time. Now it's time to add the strawberries and blend one more time. Be sure to blend until smooth, as any chunks of fruit will be difficult to chew through. Step 4: Pour The Strawberita Into A Pitcher, Garnish, And Serve. Once the Strawberita is ready, pour it into a pitcher. Garnish with a strawberry or lime wedge and serve over ice. And that's how you make a Strawberita!
Conclusion The Strawberita is a delicious, refreshing drink that will be sure to cool you down when the sun gets too hot. If you want to make more than one at once, just adjust the recipe accordingly.
