Who doesn’t love Sriracha? The beloved rooster has obtained a cult-like following and is a staple in many homes. Last year, Americans spent $60 million on the sauce. My fridge is completely naked without it. I mean, there’s a blog dedicated to cooking with Sriracha, there are t-shirts, potato chip flavors, lip balm, iPhone cases & booty shorts. And now, I present to you an effing brilliant, culty margarita, just in time for Sunday’s Cinco de Mayo.
I’m an on the rocks kind of gal, but feel free to blend this baby up for a frozen margarita or serve straight up, martini style.
You’ll need:
- 1 1/2 oz tequila
- 1/2 oz cointreau
- 4 large strawberries
- 1 tsp Sriracha (or more, or less – depending on your love for heat)
- Juice of 1 lime
- Sugar for rim
Directions:
Add strawberries, lime juice and Sriracha to the bottom of a shaker, muddle together. Add tequila and Cointreau. Add ice. Shake it baby. Swipe a lime wedge around the edge of your glass. Dip rim into a dish of sugar. Add ice. Strain. Pour. You can thank me later.
