A strawberry margarita on the rocks
...the perfect summer cocktail!
There's nothing more refreshing than a margarita after a long hot day. I especially love them with fresh strawberries. Strawberry margaritas are the perfect accompaniment served with a big bowl of chips and salsa, enchiladas, fajitas, or Mexican street tacos.
This easy strawberry margarita recipe is perfect for Cinco de Mayo or anytime you need a refreshing fruit cocktail.
