Each berry is like a delicious shot of a strawberry margarita — no blender required! The stem-on strawberries are infused with a generous amount of tequila and orange-flavored liqueur and are a fresh and unexpected treat for cocktail hour or parties. Try them as an hors d’oeuvre with chips and salsa or as a boozy eye-opener at brunch. Be warned that the longer the strawberries sit in the margarita mixture, the stronger they get, so we recommend not letting them soak for more than 12 hours.
For the strawberries: Stir the tequila, lime juice, liqueur and agave together in a measuring cup. Poke holes all over the strawberries with a toothpick. Nestle the strawberries stem-side up in a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Pour the tequila mixture over the berries in the loaf pan. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours.
Make the salty lime sugar: Combine the sugar, salt and lime zest in a small bowl. Rub the zest into the sugar and salt until the mixture turns pale green.
Drain the strawberries; you can strain the tequila mixture and save it to drink or for another use. Arrange the strawberries on a platter and serve with the lime sugar on the side for dipping.
