Preparation
Step 1
First, prepare your glass(es): Pour the salt onto a very small plate. Run a small wedge of lime around the upper outer rim of your glasses (I usually only salt half of the rim, so I can control how much salt I get in each sip). Roll the dampened rim into the salt mixture. Set the glass aside and repeat as necessary.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, agave nectar or simple syrup, strawberries and ice cubes. Blend until smooth.
Step 3
Taste and add more a bit more agave nectar if the mixture tastes harsh or just doesn’t quite sing, then blend again. Pour the mixture into your prepared glasses. Feel free to add a few ice cubes to your glasses to keep your drink cold. Serve immediately!

Chef's notes
Recipe adapted from my frozen blueberry margaritas and skinny margarita recipe.
Tequila recommendations:
You definitely want a 100% agave tequila, to avoid any unnecessary additives (also, 100% agave tequila is gluten free, whereas others may not be). My favorite brands are Espolón and Milagro.
