From the Pass to the Patio – Huey’s Got Your Drink Sorted.
Huey’s back, and he brought tequila.
Remember those sun-soaked afternoons when Huey’s hearty laugh filled your living room? This cocktail is that feeling in a can. One sip and you’re transported – warm beach breeze, classic ’90s Aussie TV vibes, and a legendary chef by your side (moustache and Hawaiian shirt included, of course). This is nostalgia, distilled: a bold, strawberry-kissed Margarita that tastes like summer holidays and cheeky midnight snacks rolled into one. In short, it’s the Huey you know and love – but this time, he’s serving ice-cold cocktails from your fridge.
Close your eyes. You can almost hear the sizzle of a barbecue on the sand and the distant jingle of the Healthy, Wealthy & Wise theme song. Open them to a can of Huey’s Strawberry Margarita sweating in your hand. It’s familiar yet thrilling – like catching up with an old mate and finding out they still know how to have a damn good time.
From TV to TikTok to Tinny: The Huey x Curatif Story
How does a TV chef icon end up teaming with a canned cocktail crew? By being a flavour-loving legend, that’s how. Iain 'Huey' Hewitson isn’t just a bloke who spent 25+ years on Aussie TVs – he’s a restaurant pioneer who helped shape Australia’s food scene. He’s the guy who taught a generation to cook without the fancy fuss, winning hearts with his down-to-earth charm and big personality. Fast forward to today, and Huey’s found a whole new legion of fans by going viral on TikTok, proving that great taste (and great banter) never go out of style. From prime-time telly to your smartphone screen, Huey’s still serving laughs and making us hungry.
The Huey X Curatif Strawberry Margarita was born when this culinary legend fell in love with our Margaritas. (Yes, the Huey is a fan – our team admittedly freaked out a little.) One fine day, Huey basically said, “These Curatif Margaritas are bonza – let’s have some fun together.” We jumped at the chance. After a few spirited chats (and a few shared drinks), a collaboration emerged rooted in shared values: an obsessive love of flavour, a commitment to craft, and an ethos that drinks should be as fun as they are fine. Huey brought decades of wisdom and a spark of nostalgia; we brought our cocktail craftsmanship and a rebellious streak. The result? A partnership as natural as salt on a Margarita rim – and a recipe only Huey could inspire.
Lively, Fresh & Fierce – The Flavour Unleashed
Huey’s Strawberry Margarita is built from the ground up with Los Arcos 100% Agave Blanco tequila – crisp, aromatic, and full of character. It’s the backbone of the drink, giving structure and warmth without ever stealing the spotlight. That gentle peppery edge from the agave keeps things lively, balancing perfectly with the sweetness of the fruit.
Our house-made strawberry syrup does the heavy lifting on flavour. Made from real strawberries, it’s rich and bright, capturing that just-picked freshness without tipping into candy sweetness. We blend it with fresh lime juice for a clean citrus hit, and a touch of agave nectar to tie everything together.
The resulting profile is a knockout combo of vibrant and refreshing. Imagine the classic punch of a top-notch Margarita – bright lime and bold tequila – but swirled with the joyful soul of a ripe strawberry daiquiri. In fact, the inspiration comes straight from Huey’s own story: after long nights in the restaurant, Huey’s go-to unwinding drink was a Strawberry Daiquiri. So we crafted this cocktail to channel that post-service treat he loved. You’ll taste it in every sip: the nostalgic echo of blended strawberries and rum, reimagined here with tequila’s agave bite. It’s a sweet-meets-zesty tornado of flavour – as if a classic Margarita took a holiday in Queensland and came back with a tan and a new attitude. One moment it’s lush berry sweetness, the next it’s limey citrus snap, all riding on smooth tequila heat. Lively? Absolutely. Too easy to drink? Let’s just say you might hear Huey’s voice in your head cheekily saying, “Go on, have another!”
Limited Release - get it before it's gone!
Like all good things, this collab cocktail won’t last forever. Huey X Curatif Strawberry Margarita is a strictly limited release – once these cans are gone, they’re really gone (no restocks, no mulligans, no “I’ll grab it next time” – fair warning!). Think of it as buying Huey a round – and in return, he’s treating you to a one-of-a-kind drink you’ll be talking about all summer. When you crack open that first can, remember you’re holding a little piece of cocktail history: the first (and maybe only) time Huey’s unmistakable touch has been captured in a can.
