strawberry limoncello margaritas

Think of this as Mexico meets Italy. A bastardized version of a margarita perhaps, but it’s delicious nonetheless, therefore I had to share the recipe. It’d be selfish of me not to. Strawberry limoncello margaritas. You’re welcome!

In our house margaritas are always made from scratch. Lime juice, pineapple, triple sec and of course tequila in equal parts. In this strawberry limoncello margarita recipe, I switched lime juice for lemon, pineapple for strawberry and triple sec for limoncello.

Strawberries are in season now in Florida and California. I even have them growing in a pot outside my kitchen. They love this Indiana weather it seems because the plant is growing like a weed.

In my world I can’t have a margarita without a salted rim. For the salted rim, I simply mixed salt and lemon zest together. This is easy stuff folks…

These were so amazing that you simply have got to make them at your next soiree. Serve them with a bowl of guacamole and some chips. Or steak fajitas.

As with so many of my recipes, this one can be prepared ahead of time. Leave the ice until you’re ready to serve (way to state the obvious hey!?). But you can have the rims salted a couple of hours ahead of time and the margarita chillin’ in the fridge overnight. Just give me a shout when you do make them so I know what time to pop over. Okay?! Toodles xo.

Ingredients
  1. 1 lb (453g) frozen strawberries
  2. 1/2 cup sugar
  3. 1 cup lemon juice
  4. 1 cup limoncello liqueur*
  5. 1 cup tequila, chilled (use gold or white)
  6. LEMON SALT
  7. 2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest
  8. 2 tablespoons coarse salt
  9. fresh strawberries, ice and sliced lemons, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Combine frozen strawberries and sugar in large saucepan. Cover and cook on medium, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes or until berries have broken and thickened. Press mixture through a fine metal strainer. You will need 1 cup of strawberry syrup. Discard solids.
  2. Combine strawberry syrup, lemon juice, limoncello and tequila in a pitcher. Chill for 1 to 3 hours (or overnight) until cold.
  3. To make the lemon salt: Combine zest and salt on a small, flat plate. Wet the edge of each serving glass with water or by running a wedge of lemon around the edge. Place each glass into the salt mixture and turn to coat the rim.
  4. Fill each glass with ice before adding the margarita mixture. Garnish with lemon slices or sliced strawberries if desired. Serves 4 to 8.
Notes
  1. * You can find Limoncello in liqueur stores and in some grocery stores (depending on where you live). I buy it from a grocery store chain in Indiana.

Such pretty little quail’s eggs. I’m working a Such pretty little quail’s eggs. I’m working at home all week testing recipes for a cookbook (sadly not another one of mine just yet) & one of the recipes requires quail eggs. I think I’d rather admire them than cook them but needs, must…

Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s fune Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s funeral. Sadly mum passed away on Wednesday & the world suddenly became less joyful, less stylish & definitely less clean & tidy. Gardens are now less pretty & food not as tasty for mum was both a fabulous cook & had the most beautiful garden. Most of you who might take the time to read this never had the honour of meeting my mum but if you had met her, she would be your friend & confidant for life. She played both mum & dad to my sis & I after our father left but we never seemed to want for anything. She was a shining star who always encouraged me to follow my dreams, even when it meant me moving halfway around the world. That just made us closer. She will be missed by those who love her ♥️
Here are some random pics: the first is mum & I in a tiny church in Drummheller, Alberta, Canada. There is one of mum in her bikini drinking a scotch at Palm Beach in Sydney (snarky me on the left in that pic). The last one is mum as a bridesmaid holding my sister. There’s one with my niece when she was little. I love the one where mum has decorated herself in daisy chains. Good memories.

Crispy Tofu with Honey Sambal - rather bland tofu Crispy Tofu with Honey Sambal - rather bland tofu is a blank canvas. Even if you’re not a tofu lover I promise this delivers. Crispy outside & creamy inside with a sweet, hot peanuttty dipping sauce this is my absolute favorite way to eat tofu.

Lemon Coconut Syrup Loaf - cold, snowy days calls Lemon Coconut Syrup Loaf - cold, snowy days calls for some cake. I have a nostalgic fondness for any sort of loaf cake. There’s something wholesome and reassuring about a cake cooked in a loaf pan. Not at all showy, a slice invokes, at times, a much-needed sense of security. It reminds me of mum and my nan, of times past back in my home in Sydney. I don’t recall if either mum or nan every made a Coconut Citrus Syrup Loaf but I know they both would of loved this recipe with its citrus tartness and the wonderfully sticky bottom from the syrup. Lovely just served on its own, it’s particularly good served with a dollop of clotted cream.
