Instructions

Blend strawberries, tequila, orange liqueur, lime and honey until smooth. (You could do this ahead and refrigerate until ready to serve.)
Add ice and blend until smooth and slushy-like. Pour into 2-3 glasses.
Drink immediately.

Notes

I love adding basil leaves to this, but was out and didn’t want to make a special trip to store. Cilantro or mint could be nice too. A squeeze of orange juice is also tasty. Play around and have fun with it.

Of course if you want it more boozy, or less boozy, adjust to taste. I’ve found that equal parts lime juice and sweetener are the perfect balance. Do as you like.
