With Agave Fresas, step into a magical garden where sweet muddled strawberries merge with the refreshing herbal essence of mint and cilantro, perfectly balancing the heat from mezcal or tequila. Choose your preference: if you like mezcal, its smokiness pairs wonderfully with the strawberries and herbs. Take your margaritas to another plane with this enchanting blend.
2 oz Tequila or Mezcal
2 oz lime juice
1 oz cilantro-mint simple syrup
2-4 muddled strawberries
Pinch salt or dash of saline solution
60 ml Tequila or Mezcal
60 ml lime juice
30 ml cilantro-mint simple syrup
2-4 muddled strawberries
Pinch salt or dash of saline solution
250 ml Tequila or Mezcal
250 ml lime juice
175 ml cilantro-mint simple syrup
½ qt strawberries blended & strained
Pinch salt or dash of saline solution
For Single Servings:
Add strawberries and lime into a shaker. Muddle the strawberries, then add the other ingredients and ice. Shake vigorously. Double strain into a coupe glass or low ball glass with ice. (Note: When double straining, use a large mesh strainer as the strawberry puree will clog a finer strainer. Alternatively, you can skip the extra strain if you are okay with some muddled strawberry making it into the final drink).
For Batch Cocktails:
Add strawberries to a blender with lime juice. Blend lightly, and strain through a colander to remove large pieces. Then strain through a medium strainer to remove smaller strawberry puree. You may want to strain again, but keep in mind that fine mesh straining strawberry puree can take time. Once your lime/strawberry juice mixture has been strained to the desired clarity, add it to a measuring pitcher with tequila and/or mezcal (you can do half and half for added complexity), simple syrup, and salt. Mix and pour into a clean bottle. When serving, add the mixture to a cocktail shaker with ice, shake vigorously, and strain into coupe glasses to serve.
