You can also use orange or strawberry flavored soda for the carbonated element to add sweetness and flavor.

To make an orange strawberry tequila fizz, start by muddling fresh sugared strawberries in a co*cktail shaker. Add tequila, orange juice, citrus juice, and ice. Shake well, then strain into a glass filled with ice and top with soda water.

Garnish with orange slices and strawberries if desired.

The ingredients for an orange strawberry tequila fizz usually include tequila, fresh strawberries, orange juice, citrus juice (such as lemon or lime), soda water, ice, and optional garnishes like orange slices and strawberry slices.

You can swap in other carbonated elements in place of the soda water, like flavored sparkling water, soda, or even sparkling wine.

Yes, you can use frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones in an orange strawberry tequila fizz. However, fresh strawberries will provide a brighter and more vibrant flavor to the co*cktail.

For best results, defrost slightly before muddling. If you use frozen berries in syrup, you can skip the addition of sugar.

The strength of an orange strawberry tequila fizz can vary depending on the amount of tequila used and personal preference. As written, expect it to be a medium strength.

Feel free to adjust the alcohol-to-mixer ratio to suit your taste preferences and tolerance.

Yes, you can make a non-alcoholic mocktail version of an orange strawberry tequila fizz by simply omitting the tequila.

Muddle the strawberries, add orange juice and soda water, and serve over ice for a refreshing mocktail. Adjust the sweetness with agave to add tequila-reminiscent notes.

There are many variations of the orange strawberry tequila fizz that you can experiment with. You can try using different types of berries, such as raspberries or blueberries, or swap in citrus liqueur in place of the juice.

• 3 ounces strawberry or orange sparkling water (I use Bubly strawberry)

• Combine the chopped strawberries and sugar in the bottom of a co*cktail shaker (or similar), then use a muddler (or similar tool) to smash the berries. You may also blend and strain them if you prefer no seeds or chunks of fruit in your drink

  ¼ cup chopped strawberries, ½ tsp granulated sugar

• Blanco or silver tequila are the best varieties for this drink, but you can use your favorites. If you don’t like tequila, vodka or gin are also good substitutes
• Instead of the sugar, you can substitute honey or agave if preferred, or you can skip the fresh fruit entirely and use ½ ounce of strawberry flavored syrup, which is sweetened
• Prepared or fresh orange juice are both great options. A good substitute is orange soda, which adds the sweetness, carbonation, and orange flavor all in one!
• Instead of the sparkling water, you can also use orange soda as previously mentioned, strawberry Fanta, club soda, or sparkling wine. Note that I use unsweetened sparkling water, so if you choose a sweetened variety you may want to omit the sugar
• Garnishes are entirely optional, but can include a fresh strawberry, slice or orange or lime, or a sprig of mint, if desired
• This drink is about medium strength as written – you can add more tequila or add ½ ounce triple sec for a stronger drink. Use more orange juice or sparkling water for a weaker drink
• Despite the sugar, this drink is not sweet as written. You can add more sugar if you want a sweeter drink, or some agave, which compliments the tequila nicely. Alternatively, use soda or sweetened sparkling water for your carbonated element
• Exact nutritional values will vary based on brand and flavor of ingredients, size of glasses, any garnishes added, and actual quantity consumed, so please consider this a guideline only
