- Gently stir the mixture over the heat until the sugar, salt and gelatin have dissolved completely.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Cool to room temperature, stir in the food coloring and lime zest and then place in the refrigerator to chill.
- Stir the mixture occasionally until it begins to set, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, with an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy.
- Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar to the whites, beating constantly, until stiff and glossy.
- Remove the gelled mixture from the refrigerator and fold in the diced strawberries.
- Next, add the meringue and whipped cream and thoroughly fold everything together.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Pour the red sanding sugar out into a shallow bowl or pie plate, at least 1/4-inch high.
- Dampen a thick paper towel, folded in quarters, with water.
- Press the rims of 6 (8-ounce) margarita glasses onto the wet paper towel and then lightly dip them into the sanding sugar.
- Divide the mousse into the margarita glasses with a spoon. Garnish the tops of each mousse glass with freshly sliced strawberries and mint leaves.
