1/2cupfresh lemon juice
1/4cuptriple sec
1tbspfresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
Agave syrup or sugar to taste, if needed
Substitutions:
Tequila —> any tequila or mezcal works, vodka would also be delightful
Strawberries —> peaches, nectarines, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, mango, or any combo of these
Lemon Juice —> lime juice or orange juice but don’t add the triple sec because it’ll be too sweet!
Triple Sec —> sub in cointreau, or if you don’t have either, just omit it completely and add either 1/4 cup orange juice or a couple tablespoons of agave or sugar
Mint —> omit!
Instructions
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend on high speed for 20 to 30 seconds, until no strawberry specks remain. Taste. If your strawberries weren’t at their peak it may need to be sweetened. Add a touch of agave syrup or sugar if so.
Pour over a glass full of ice and serve with thinly sliced strawberries and mint as garnish.
