Instructions
For margarita:
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add in strawberry-rhubarb syrup, tequila, lime juice, and triple sec.
- Shake until cold.
- Add kosher salt to a small plate.
- Lightly dip the rim of your short cocktail glass in water and dip in the kosher salt to create a kosher salt rim.
- Fill the glass with ice and pour the margarita over the ice.
- Garnish with lime wedges and sliced strawberries.
For syrup:
- Add all ingredients to a medium-sized saucepan and set over medium heat.
- Let simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes. Try not to smash down the fruit as it cooks but it will start to get very soft.
- After 15 minutes the mixture should be deep red in color.
- Remove from the heat and strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl. Let the mixture drain for a few minutes without pushing the fruit through the strainer.
- Once strained let it cool in the refrigerator.
