This Strawberry Lone Ranger is a refreshing summer cocktail that combines fresh strawberries, lemon juice, tequila, and sparkling rosé. It's the perfect summer spritz for tequila and rosé lovers!

I love summer spritzes, especially ones that are light and not too sweet. This light and airy grapefruit Aperol spritz and this elderflower st germain spritz are more my favorites!

Key Ingredients

The ingredients for the strawberry Lone Ranger on a brown stone table.
  • Fresh Strawberries: 2 fresh strawberries are muddled with the simple syrup for a really fresh-tasting strawberry mixture. 
  • Simple Syrup: simple syrup is 1 part sugar to 1 part water heated until all the sugar has dissolved; I typically make it with 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water.
  • Lemon Juice: freshly squeezed lemon juice is a must!
  • Tequila: Blanco Tequila is the heavy spirit for this cocktail; my two favorites are Casamigos and Herradura. 
  • Brut Rosé: the finished cocktail is topped with sparkling rosé for a really refreshing spritz!

EXPERT TIPS:

  • Suggested Barware: Use a jigger to measure your syrup, lemon juice, and tequila accurately.
  • You can use a wooden spoon to smash the fruit if you don't have a muddler. 
  • Make sure you thoroughly muddle the strawberries and syrup so that they are almost all liquid before adding to the glass.
