Preparation

Step 1

To make the purée, add berries, sugar, and water to a blender or food processor and purée for 1 minute.

Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan and heat until sugar is dissolved completely.

Add purée, simple syrup, lime juice, orange liqueur, and tequila in a small pitcher or carafe.

Stir well to combine, and serve over ice with a wedge of lime. I usually don’t rim my glass, if I do I usually go with sugar instead of salt.
