Add Tequila and Liqueurs: Pour 2 ounces of Patron tequila and 1 ounce of blue curaçao into the blender with some ice cubes. Blend until well combined and icy—this should resemble a slushy texture.

Assemble Your Cocktail: In a tall glass, alternate layers of strawberry puree and blue mixture for a gorgeous visual effect. You can use a spoon to help guide each layer if needed.
