Strawberry Tequila

Our inspiration for Sunday Supper today is a music-inspired recipe.

As I sat there sipping my newest seasonal creation – a Strawberry Tequila – it struck me, like a d’oh forehead bonk: “Strawberry Fields Forever,” by the Beatles.

A classic song deserves its own cocktail, don’t you think?

Here, then, at the height of the California strawberry season, when the fruit just can’t get any redder or any sweeter, I present Strawberry Tequila.

(And if you like this one, you should also try my Strawberry-Infused Vodka. Oh yeah, I got all the teachers at my son’s elementary school hooked on that!)

This week our #SundaySupper crew is harmonizing about our music-inspired recipes. Check out the variety of things we have cooked up for you! Try my crazy Strawberry Tequila in honor of “Strawberry Fields Forever,” or find something else from the menu below that floats your boat:
