Make it a Mocktail
Skip the tequila and swap in sparkling water or club soda for a refreshing, alcohol-free twist. Muddle the strawberries and basil as directed, then add lime juice and strawberry simple syrup. Shake with ice, strain over fresh ice, and top with a splash of bubbles. Finish with a pinch of Salt Sisters Lime Sea Salt and your garnishes for the same bright cocktail, just without the alcohol.
Light, refreshing, and full of flavor, this margarita is made for slow evenings and sunny weekends.
