I recently stumbled upon a gem that offers both convenience and an exceptional taste—Flybird Strawberry Margarita. Made from natural ingredients and the pure essence of 100% Blue Weber Agave, this ready-to-drink option captures the essence of a homemade cocktail with none of the hassle.
Flybird Strawberry Margarita is a ready-to-drink cocktail that combines strawberry flavors with the classic margarita mix. It’s typically made with a blend of tequila, lime juice, and strawberry flavors, often with additional sweeteners and sometimes a hint of other fruit flavors.
Ingredients
Flybird Strawberry Margarita: The primary ingredient, this is a ready-to-drink cocktail made from 100% Blue Weber Agave wine and natural strawberry flavoring.
Ice: For serving chilled.
Fresh Strawberries: Optional, for garnish.
Lime Wheels: Optional, for garnish.
Salt or Sugar: For rimming the glass, depending on your preference.
Instructions
Prepare Your Glass:
Begin by choosing your preferred glass, typically a highball or a margarita glass.
Rim the glass with lime juice and then dip it into either salt or sugar, depending on what you prefer. This step is optional but adds an extra layer of flavor and texture.
Mix the Cocktail:
Fill the rimmed glass with ice to keep your margarita cool and refreshing.
Shake the bottle of Flybird Strawberry Margarita well before opening as natural ingredients may settle.
Pour the Flybird Strawberry Margarita over the ice, filling the glass. No mixing or additional ingredients are necessary unless you wish to adjust the strength or flavor.
Garnish and Serve:
Slice fresh strawberries and lime wheels for garnish. Slide the strawberries onto the rim of the glass or skewer them with a small skewer. Add a lime wheel for a citrusy aesthetic and zesty flavor.
Place the prepared garnishes on the rim of your glass or let them float atop your drink.
Tips:
Enhancing Flavor: If you prefer a stronger taste of strawberry or lime, you can muddle fresh strawberries and a slice of lime in the bottom of the glass before adding ice and pouring the margarita mix.
Adjusting Sweetness: Depending on your taste, you might want to adjust the sweetness. Adding a small splash of agave syrup can sweeten it further while a squeeze of fresh lime juice can add a bit of tartness to balance the sweetness.
Serving Size: Each bottle typically serves several margaritas depending on the serving size. Make sure to check the bottle for exact details.
What to serve with
When serving a vibrant and flavorful cocktail like the Flybird Strawberry Margarita, pairing it with just the right foods can enhance the entire experience, transforming a simple drink into a symphony of flavors.
Light Snacks and Appetizers
Chips and Salsa are a classic pairing that’s easy to prepare. To complement the strawberry notes in your margarita, opt for a mix of traditional tomato salsa and fruit salsa, like mango or pineapple.
Ceviche: This fresh, citrus-infused seafood dish is refreshing and pairs wonderfully with the fruity, zesty character of a strawberry margarita, creating a balance between the drink and the appetizer.
Heartier Options
Grilled Shrimp Tacos: Seafood, especially when grilled with a hint of lime and spice, complements the refreshing qualities of the margarita. Serve with a slaw or fresh salsa for an extra flavor boost.
Chicken Fajitas: The smoky flavors of the chicken and peppers match the sweet and tart margarita. Incorporate some of the margarita mix into the fajita marinade for an extra touch of harmony.
Quesadillas: Whether filled with cheese, chicken, or vegetables, quesadillas are a versatile option that can be adjusted to suit the fruity profile of the strawberry margarita. Add some spicy elements to contrast the sweetness of the drink.
Sweet Endings
Lime Sorbet or Ice Cream: A light, citrusy dessert can cleanse the palate and enhance the refreshing qualities of the margarita. Choose something not overly sweet to balance the drink’s natural sweetness.
Fresh Fruit Platter: A selection of tropical fruits such as mango, pineapple, and papaya, alongside berries, can accompany the strawberry flavor of the margarita well, offering a refreshing and healthy option.
Churros with Chocolate Sauce: For a decadent treat, serve warm churros. The cinnamon and sugar complement the strawberry margarita’s sweetness, and the chocolate provides a rich contrast.
