Strawberry Agave Paloma

• Strawberry agave syrup: 

1/4 cup of water, 1/4 cup of agave nectar, 3 strawberries, chopped into small pieces 

• For the rim:

Black Lava Sea Salt and Sweet and Spicy Sriracha Lime Seasoning from My Fabulous Food 

• For the remainder of the drink:

A few cubes ice, 2 ounces of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, 1 tablespoon of fresh squeezed lime juice, 3 teaspoons of strawberry agave syrup, 2 ounces of tequila, 2 ounces of club soda

• Optional garnishes:

grapefruit wedges, strawberries, or lime wedges

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a small sauce pan, combine the water, agave nectar, and chopped strawberries. Stir the ingredients. Bring to a low boil over medium heat, and reduce to low. Let simmer for 7-10 minutes, until the agave has dissolved and strawberries have softened and turned the syrup red in color. Let the syrup cool at room temperature.
2. Moisten the rim of the cocktail glass with a lime wedge. Place the rim upside down in the seasoning mixture. Shake off any excess seasoning. Fill the glass halfway with ice.
3. In the cocktail glass, add the grapefruit juice, lime juice, strawberry agave syrup, and tequila. Top the drink with the club soda and stir to combine.
4. Garnish with grapefruit wedges, lime wedges, or strawberries if desired. Enjoy!
