Equipment

  • Blender: To blend the strawberries smoothly.
  • Muddler or Spoon: For gently mashing the basil to release its flavor.
  • Cocktail shaker: To mix everything together.
  • Strainer: To pour the mocktail without chunks.
  • Glasses: To serve the delicious drink. I prefer tall ones for an elegant look.

Ingredients

Here's what I use to create this tasty treat:

  • 1 cup strawberries: Fresh or frozen hulled and rinsed.
  • 6-8 fresh basil leaves: Washed to bring out their aroma.
  • 1 tablespoon honey or sugar: Adjust according to your taste.
  • 1 cup sparkling water: Use chilled for a fizzy touch.
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice: Freshly squeezed for a hint of tanginess.
  • Ice cubes: To keep it cool and refreshing.

Feel free to adjust the amounts to suit your taste. 🍹

Instructions

Let's get started on this easy drink:

  • Blend the strawberries: Put them in the blender and make a smooth puree.
  • Muddle the basil: Gently mash the leaves with a muddler or spoon to release their flavor.
  • Mix ingredients: Add the strawberry puree, basil, lime juice, and honey to a shaker with some ice.
  • Shake it up: Give it a good shake until well mixed.
  • Strain and serve: Pour through a strainer into glasses, top with sparkling water.

Add a strawberry slice or basil leaf for decoration, if you like!

    Notes

    This drink is very flexible.
    Sweetness: If it's too sweet, reduce the honey or sugar. Too tart? Add more.
    Basil substitute: Mint can be used if you're out of basil.
    Storage: Make ahead, but add sparkling water only when serving to keep it fizzy.
