Happy Cinco De Mayo! I thought today would be the perfect day to republish one of my favorite margaritas that I LOVE making as we head into summer and prime berry season: Frozen Strawberry Basil Margaritas! This year I’m really looking forward to making these with fresh produce from our own garden. I love to enjoy these with a salt rim, which if you love a sweet/salty combo I cannot recommend enough. Let me know if you try these yummy cocktails out!
Ingredients…
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
- 6 basil leaves, torn (plus more for garnish)
- 2 ounces Tequila
- 2 Tbs Simple Syrup
- 1 cup ice

Directions…
Place all ingredients into a powerful blender, and blend until smooth and thick. Add more ice for a thicker margarita, or add water by the tablespoon if you need to loosen it. Pour into glasses and serve!

Looks like your special ‘art director’ really helped out with those cactus string lights!
Do you mind me asking what name Marlowe and Major call your Stepdad?
(I love that your Mom is “Honey.” A good friend of mine from high school called her Grandmom that from the time she was little. Super cute!)
