Is It A Strawberry Lemonade or Pink Lemonade Margarita?
It’s both! It can obviously be called a strawberry lemonade margarita because it’s made with alcohol, lemonade and strawberries. However, it can also be called a pink lemonade margarita because that’s made with alcohol, lemonade and either food coloring or other red juices, like from fruits.
