Prepare the Glasses

Run a lime wedge around the rim of each margarita glass.
Dip the rims in salt or sugar on a small plate or saucer. Set the glasses aside.

Blend the Ingredients

In a blender, combine the strawberries, banana, tequila, triple sec, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice cubes.
Blend on high speed until smooth and frothy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a bit more ice or a splash of water to achieve the desired consistency.

Taste and Adjust

Taste the margarita mixture. If it's not sweet enough, add more simple syrup. If it needs more tang, add more lime juice. Blend again to incorporate any adjustments.

Serve

Pour the margarita mixture into the prepared glasses.
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of each glass

Enjoy

Serve immediately and enjoy your Strawberry Banana Margarita!

Notes

Tips

For a non-alcoholic version, you can replace the tequila and triple sec with an equal amount of orange juice and a splash of club soda or sparkling water.
You can use frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones, which can also help achieve a thicker, slushier texture.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup according to your preference.

This Strawberry Banana Margarita is a delightful blend of fruity flavors and a great way to enjoy a cocktail with a bit of a nutritional boost from the fresh fruits. Cheers!
