Total Time 2 hours 5 minutes
Servings 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (12 ounces each) frozen limeade concentrate
  • 5 cans (or 60 ounces) of water
  • 15 strawberries (give or take)
  • handful of basil leaves
  • 4-5 cups tequila (gold or silver), depending on how strong you want it
  • ice

Instructions

  1. In a large drink dispenser (at least 1 gallon), add limeade concentrate, strawberries, water, and tequila. Stir well until limeade is completely dissolved (might take a minute if it was frozen still).

  2. Add basil leaves, crumpling them a bit before you put them into the dispenser (this helps release the flavor); stir to combine.

  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

  4. Serve over ice and enjoy!
