Strawberry Lime Frozen Margarita
I think Mondays deserve booze.
I find it hard to believe that I’m alone with this opinion. Who’s with me? Strawberry Lime Frozen Margaritas for breakfast, anyone? No judgments here.
It’s the week of Cinco de Mayo and while I’ve shared Mexican Street Corn and Shrimp Tacos with Avocado Salsa, life just isn’t complete until we’ve had a few cocktails. I’m up to my eyeballs over here in strawberries, so I decided that when life gives you strawberries, Strawberry Lime Frozen Margaritas are the way to go.
And I’m totally not joking about the amount of strawberries I have. I planted one tiny little strawberry plant last year in my garden and now it’s taken over one of my raised beds. I have so many that I even stopped fighting the birds for them! Needless to say, I have a lot of strawberry posts in the pipeline. I hope y’all like strawberries!
I’m keeping things short today. Because….tequila and Game of Thrones. ‘Nuff said.
Have a great week, y’all!
