So I know what you’re thinking. “Strawberries aren’t keto-friendly.” True. But this Low Carb, Keto Strawberry Serrano Margaritas recipe uses only ONE large strawberry, resulting in two margaritas with only THREE net carbs each.
That being said, many of those following a strict keto diet say alcohol is a no-go on the Keto diet. There are so many different opinions on Keto, but please do be aware that if you’re trying to lose weight, most recommend you don’t consume alcohol during that time because it can cause stalls. Others consume it with no issues, so it’s really depends on the individual.
Me? I want my margaritas, and I’m okay with it slowing down my weight loss a bit.
If you like spicy, you’ll love these Low Carb, Keto Strawberry Serrano Margaritas. Just one serrano pepper is plenty to give them a little kick. Use two if you’re brave. 🙂
