Ingredients
Essential Ingredients
- Fresh Strawberries – 1 cup, hulled and rinsed
- Sprite or Lemon-Lime Soda – 2 cups, chilled
- Fresh Lemon Juice – 2 tablespoons
- Simple Syrup (optional) – 1 to 2 tablespoons, to taste
- Ice Cubes – as needed to fill glasses
- Mint Leaves (optional) – for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Rinse and hull fresh strawberries, then puree about half using a blender or food processor until smooth. For a chunkier texture, lightly mash with a fork instead.
- Mix Lemon Juice and Sweetener: In a large glass or pitcher, combine fresh lemon juice with simple syrup to your preferred sweetness level. Stir well to blend the flavors evenly.
- Add Strawberry Puree: Pour the strawberry puree into the lemon-sweetener mix and stir gently to combine all the fruity goodness.
- Fill with Ice and Sprite: Fill glasses with ice cubes, then slowly pour in cold Sprite, stirring gently to keep the fizz vibrant and blend the flavors beautifully.
- Garnish and Serve: Add fresh mint leaves or a slice of strawberry on the rim for a pretty presentation and an extra burst of aroma.
Notes
- Use ripe strawberries for the sweetest flavor.
- Chill all ingredients beforehand to keep the drink refreshing and fizzy.
- Avoid over-stirring to preserve the carbonation.
- Adjust sweetness gradually by starting with less simple syrup.
- Freeze strawberry puree in ice cube trays for an extra flavor boost as the ice melts.
