Strawberry Basil Margaritas

Total Time: 5 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 8
• 1 (12 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate
• 10 strawberries (or 12 if you're using smaller ones from the farmer's market or your backyard.)
• 8 basil leaves
• 2 -2 1/2 cups tequila (gold or silver)

Recipe

• 1 empty the limeade concentrate into a pitcher.
• 2 add 2 1/2 cans of water and 1 1/2 (18 ounces, or 2 1/4 cups) cans of tequila (or a bit less, if you don't want your drinks to be quite as strong).
• 3 hull the strawberries, slice lengthwise, and add to the pitcher.
• 4 crumple the basil a little in your hands (this will help the basil flavor release into the drink) and add it to the pitcher, too.
• 5 place the pitcher, covered, in the fridge overnight, or for at least four hours.
