    I am always on the look out for a fun and festive drink that we can enjoy for a special occasion like Valentine's Day. Strawberry Tequila Spritz is made with sparkling rose, tequila and muddled strawberries for a perfectly pink cocktail that is light and refreshing.

    Light and refreshing cocktails are my favorite way to start off a meal and if you love this Strawberry Tequila Spritz, you will also love our Blackberry Tequila Lemonade, the Classic Italian Aperol Spritz or The Perfect Paloma!

    Ingredients

    A white plate with whole strawberries, a lemon cut in half and a cocktail measuring spoon.

    Strawberries-Ripe and sweet strawberries will be the best for muddling. I prefer fresh strawberries, but frozen will work as well.
    Tequila- Make sure to choose a good quality tequila that you love to sip on. A light Reposado Tequila is always a great choice when mixing.
    Lemon- Fresh squeezed lemon juice only. If you use a bottled lemon juice it will change the flavor of the cocktail.
    Simple Syrup- A small dash of sweetener enhances the strawberry flavor. Store-Bought or Homemade Simple Syrup is great, agave syrup or even honey.
    Rośe Wine-Sparkling Rośe will be the finishing touch for this fruity cocktail. I prefer a Rośe that is not overly sweet

    Step-by-Step Directions

    Three clear glasses filled with tequila, rose, lemon juice and sliced strawberries.
    • In a cocktail glass, muddle the strawberries until the juice is extracted and the strawberries are mashed
    • Combine the tequila, lemon juice and simple syrup over the muddled strawberries and gently stir
    • Top off with sparkling rose, stir and serve 
    • Garnish with fresh sliced strawberries

    Tips To Make The Best Strawberry Spritz

    Use Ripe Fruit
    When you are muddling fruit for a cocktail, you always want to be sure that the fruit is ripe and slightly soft so that the juice can easily be extracted and they will add sweetness to the cocktail.

    Good Quality Tequila
    Make sure to always use good quality tequila that you enjoy sipping on! Tequila is also a low calorie liquor that is so versatile in so many different mixed drinks because of the neutral flavor and no added sugar. I love a Reposado Tequila because it has a very smooth flavor a little vanilla flavor.
