Muddle two of the strawberries in a cocktail shaker. Add lime juice, simple syrup, crème de cassis and tequila. Shake with ice and strain into a champagne flute.
Top off with sparkling wine and garnish with a strawberry.
This is one of the best cocktails my husband and I have tasted. A true muddler will help get more juice from the berries; the first time we winged it and it was still good. Floral, light, delicious, and not strong. A winner!
This is a nice summery cocktail, the muddled strawberry taste really comes through. Next time I will cut the simple syrup (sugar) in half to make it more refreshing. Presentation is very nice!
