Ingredients
- 500 grams strawberries
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons tequila
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 3 tablespoons water
Directions
Step 1
1. Rinse the strawberries thoroughly, hull them, and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Step 2
2. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, lime juice, tequila, lime zest, and water.
Step 3
3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture gently to coat the strawberries evenly with sugar.
Step 4
4. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for approximately 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. The strawberries should soften, and the liquid will become syrupy.
Step 5
5. Remove the pan from heat and allow the compote to cool slightly. The compote will thicken further as it cools.
Step 6
6. Transfer the compote to a serving bowl or an airtight container. Serve warm, chilled, or at room temperature as desired.
Step 7
7. Enjoy your Tequila Lime Strawberry Compote on pancakes, waffles, yogurt, or desserts!
