Sipping Saturday
I set aside a few strawberries from my trip to Poteet, Texas to share with you one of my favorite margaritas. Truthfully I love them all, but you can’t beat the taste of fresh strawberry juice on a hot, humid Texas night! Enjoy! Sweet Life!
One margarita rule I do follow religiously is to use fresh juice. If strawberry seeds aren’t your thing, simply strain to enjoy this colorful margarita.

Love love the use of fresh juices…a beauty of a drink!
Oh Bonnie, those look just perfect. I can certainly use few of those today. Look at the color of those berries. Yum.
You know what my favorite thing is? Peanut butter, cream cheese and strawberry jelly sandwiches. Drool…
Yummie, I know it is early and just Monday, but I can assure you that I’d love to have this strawberry margarita now 🙂 Have a great week!
Delicious – so refreshing and makes me look forward to lots of lovely ripe strawberries in the summer!

Brilliant margarita! Loving the use of fresh strawberry juice. One of the those sneaky ninja drinks that tastes so good you forget that its boozy, right? Well done!
The drink look so refreshing and gorgeous! beautiful color.
I already love this because of my love for strawberries and tequila!
yep, perfect ode to strawberry season and Texan upbringing… can’t think of any better cocktail to serve for the weekend…
Oh yummy – what a great idea. I have only had a strawberry daiquiri before not a margarita.
