What is the bartender tip for a One Two Punch?

Educated Barfly: 60 ml blanco tequila, 15 ml Aperol, 22 ml lime, 22 ml 1:1 syrup, and four or five strawberry quarters. Muddle before the ice; the double strain pulls the pulp. The Aperol is a short bitter — the catalog's Aperol Margarita goes 30 ml, no fruit, with orange bitters. 100% agave blanco; reposado disappears behind the strawberry. Ripe in-season strawberries; underripe ones want a little more syrup. Chilled glass; a large cube works if you want it colder. It's not the scotch-and-pilsner One-Two Punch, or the Snap Out of It (pineapple and ginger).
