Preparation:

Step 1
• Mix the flour and sugar. Stir in the butter, milk, and eggs. Add the food coloring and extracts and mix well. Add the tequila. At this point, you may need to add a little more liquid to achieve the desired consistency—milk works well. The batter should be about as thick as cupcake batter.
Step 2
• Preheat the griddle to 300°F (150°C). Spoon generous spoonfuls of batter onto the griddle. When bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancakes, add 1-2 strawberry slices to each pancake, then flip. Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, then remove the pancakes, placing them strawberry-side up on waxed paper. Stack them on a plate (upside down!) to showcase the fresh strawberries.
Step 3
• Top pancakes with whipped cream, pink sprinkles, lime zest and lime syrup.
