Strawberry Basil Margarita 🍓

My skinny margarita is where this whole Boozy Bodybuilder idea started so I am not sure if it can be beat but if you are tired of the usual marg this one is a fun twist to switch it up a bit. Obviously I am a fan of fruit in my dranks in the summertime & this one fits in nicely. The basil freshens up the sweetness of the drink for a deliciously balanced cocktail 😋

So here’s whatcha need: (This recipe makes 2 cocktails)

🍓 Strawberries- ~10-12 with the tops cut off

🍓 Tequila- 1/2 cup: I used Reposado but Blanco would be good too

🍓 Grand Mariner- 2oz.

🍓 Lime- juice of 1 lime

🍓 Truvia- 10g

🍓 Basil- 4-5 fresh leaves

🍓 Salt- this is for the rim & it’s optional

🍓 Blender

🍓 Ice

Directions: Run the lime around the rim of your 2 glasses & dip the rims into the salt to salt the rim. Then fill the glasses with ice. Set the glasses aside. Put strawberries, tequila, grand mariner, lime juice, Truvia, basil and a couple of handfuls of ice in the blender. Blend thoroughly for a good minute or 2. Pour the contents of the blender into each glass & enjoy!!! 🥂
