Tequila Por Mi Amante or Strawberry Tequila

Strawberry season is here! What better way to spend a hot summer afternoon than hanging out with friends, barbecuing and drinking margaritas? I am rather partial to fruit margaritas, especially strawberry margaritas, which this tequila recipe is fantastic in. It’s best to start it soon so you’ll have it on hand by the time Summer starts.

What you need:
Large glass container
1/2 flat of strawberries, washed and sliced
Juice from 2 limes
1/4 c honey
Two 750mL bottles of Tequila

Process:
1. Put all ingredients in glass container making sure that the tequila completely covers the strawberries.
2. Cover tightly and store in a cool, dark place for 30-45 days.
3. Strain and chill.

I like to mix the tequila soaked strawberries with an equal amount of fresh strawberries and make tequila strawberry preserves.
