Yesterday, I realized that I'd forgotten to eat the strawberries I bought on sale at Central Market.
Whoops.
In an effort to save them in a creative way--i.e. drink them--I decided to make strawberry margaritas. I wanted to do something a little different (translation: I'm out of Grand Marnier).
I just made something up, and the drink was so simple and so tasty, I had two. Okay, three.
I named my drink a "Pink Lady Baby" in honor of the Cardinal babies that are flying around my house this spring, but it's so simple, I'm sure it exists out there somewhere under a different name.
The Pink Lady Baby
1.5 oz Silver Tequila (I used El Berrinche because that's what I had).5 oz St. Germain Elderflower liquor1 oz simple syrup1 oz Stirrings GrenadineJuice of 1 good limeHowever many pieces of strawberry you have lying around
I muddled the tequila, St. Germain, and strawberries, added the other ingredients, shook and poured straight into a collins with a salted rim.
Yum, yum, yum! Easy, refreshing, and perfect for spring.
¡Salud!
Sounds interesting! I'm gonna try it, but the difference will be that I'm not going to use what I have at hand, I'll use my best tequila, in my case it is tequila amor mío. let's hope this mix goes well!
