Has the diabolical weather got you in a bind, craving a late sleep-in?
If your body seems to be daydreaming away towards an early weekend but you're holding yourself back from the liquid merrymaking that comes with it, we have a nifty little hack for you to get high on — pun intended. It's boozy, it's fruity, it's a salad (so extra points for feeling 'healthy') and to add to it, it's officially Tequila day today!
Tipsy tequila fruit salad
Ingredients: Watermelon chunks - 3 cups, pineapple chunks - 3 cups, sliced strawberries - 2 cups, tequila - 1/4 cup, honey - 1/4 cup, zested and juiced limes - 3
Method: Combine watermelon, pineapple, and strawberries in a serving bowl. Whisk tequila, agave nectar, lime zest, and lime juice together in a small bowl until well combined; pour over fruit and toss to coat.

The flavour profiles on this salad can be varied with a hit of salt or even some chopped up herbs. Basil, mint and even a hint of dill (if you're using salt) work great. Feeling bougie? toss you fruit pieces on the grill for a nice little smoky char before tossing it up with the tequila, lime, honey and herbs for a nice subtle smoky affair.
And if you're looking for a pro-tip that does away with weekday obligations of sobriety, down a shot of your favourite tequila with some salt and lime before digging into your bowl of boozy goodness! There's literally no way you can get your happy high wrong.
