Pitcher Drinks: Strawberry Margarita Mocktails
/One of my favourite memories of summer is when a girlfriend used to bring over strawberry margarita pitchers. It’s the best summer drink, combining seasonal fresh strawberries with the zing of a margarita. This mocktail version is just as good and just as refreshing! It requires a little prep to make a strawberry puree, but other than that, it’s basically pour and serve! No fuss, and very little mess, just the way summer drinks should be.
Non-alcoholic zero-proof tequila
In this recipe, I’m using Ritual tequila alternative because it’s got heat, and flavour and it stands up in a drink even if there’s a lot of ice diluting it. This is important, because a lot of non-alcoholic spirits get watered down and lose their flavour in drinks with ice.
Step 1: Making a strawberry puree
Ingredients
2 cups husked and quartered strawberries
1 tbsp water
Preparation
Blend on high-speed until pureed.
Step 2: Making strawberry margarita mocktail pitchers
Ingredients
1 cup Ritual Zero Proof Tequila Alternative
3/4 cup strawberry puree
1/2 cup lime juice
1/4 cup Lyres Orange Sec
Pinch of salt
1 cup seltzer (or eyeball)
Preparation
Add the first five ingredients to a pitcher and stir to combine.
If serving right away:
Add ice.
Top with seltzer and sliced strawberries.
If serving later:
Refrigerate base until ready to serve, then add ice and seltzer.
