My Valentine’s Day Margarita!

Strawberry Lemonade Valentine’s Day Margarita Recipe

If you’re looking for Valentine’s day cocktail inspiration, then you need to try this Strawberry Lemonade Margarita. This drink recipe is sweet, refreshing and easy to make with your valentine (or your galentines!) this February. 

I posted this pink cocktail to Tik Tok as V-Day drink inspiration. Since then it has amassed over 2 million views! It is as fun to make as it is to drink. I plan on spending Valentine’s Day sipping this Strawberry Lemonade Margarita.

Ingredients

Serving size: 1 Cocktail.

  • 3 – 4 large strawberries.
  • 1 lemon.
  • 2 oz of Blanco Tequila.
  • 1 oz of Cointreau or Triple Sec.
  • 4 – 6 oz of Strawberry Lemonade.

Directions

First, cut several strawberries into hearts by slicing them vertically and cutting a small triangle out of the top of each slice. Set aside. 

Rim your glass with lemon juice and sugar. Add in half of your ice and press your strawberry hearts against the sides of your glass. Top with more ice to keep the fruit in place. 

Into your shaker add 2 oz of Tequila, 1 oz of Triple Sec or Cointreau, then the juice of half a lemon. Add your strawberry lemonade, about 4-6 oz. I got mine from Trader Joe’s! Use a dash of drink glitter if desired (mine is from Fancy Sprinkles). Add ice to your shaker and shake for 10-15 seconds. Strain into your glass then garnish with a lemon wheel and strawberry heart.

To enjoy this drink without the alcohol, I recommend adding a lemon lime soda (like Sprite) to the strawberry lemonade in place of the tequila and triple sec. Alternatively, you could use club soda!

I hope you enjoy this Valentine’s Day margarita recipe. If you try it out and post your beautiful cocktail, tag me @TheSpritzEffect on Instagram and Tik Tok.
