Cooking instruction summary:
Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and whisk while it heats over medium heat, until all sugar is dissolved. Continue to simmer for 7-9 minutes, until sugar has dissolved, strawberries have broken down a bit, and liquid has turned a deep, syrupy pink. Remove from heat and let cool for 15-20 minutes.When syrup has cooled, strain it into a medium sized bowl to remove all fruit chunks and thyme leaves.

Save any extra syrup in the fridge for up to a week!Run a citrus (lime, orange, lemon) wedge around the rim of each glass and dip the glass edges into sugar or salt (I used sugar). If you don’t have any citrus, you can run water around the glass with a finger – it works just as well. Fill glasses with ice and set aside.In a shaker, combine simple syrup, lime juice, and tequila. Shake over ice until chilled, then pour over ice into prepared glasses.Slice some strawberries in half until just below the stems, then slip them over the edge of each glass to garnish. Also add a sprig of thyme to each glass for garnish. Serve immediately.
