Ingredients
Scale
Fruit Base
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Sweetener
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
Liquids
- ½ cup cold water
- 1 cup sparkling water or club soda, chilled
Garnish and Serving
- Ice cubes
- Lime slices for garnish
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Fruit Mixture: In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries, honey (or agave syrup), fresh lime juice, and cold water. Blend the ingredients until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
- Strain the Mixture: Pour the blended strawberry mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove seeds and pulp. Use a spoon to press the mixture gently, extracting as much liquid as possible for a silky texture.
- Assemble the Drink: Fill glasses halfway with ice cubes, then pour the strained strawberry mixture about halfway up each glass. Top off with chilled sparkling water or club soda to add fizz.
- Final Touch and Serve: Stir gently to combine the sparkling water with the strawberry base. Garnish each glass with lime slices and fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately to enjoy maximum fizz and freshness.
Notes
- For a frozen variation, use frozen strawberries and blend with ice cubes instead of cold water.
- Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less honey or agave syrup.
- Use a sugar-free sweetener alternative if you prefer a lower-sugar version.
