- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced - 10-12 fresh mint leaves - 2 tablespoons lime juice (freshly squeezed) Fresh strawberries are the star of this drink. They give a sweet and fruity flavor. I recommend using ripe strawberries for the best taste. Next, mint leaves add a refreshing note. They wake up your senses with every sip. Lastly, lime juice brings a tangy kick. It balances the sweetness of the strawberries. - 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste) You can choose between honey and agave syrup.

Sliced strawberries also look nice. They show off the fresh ingredients and make your drink look inviting. These simple touches make your mocktail feel special. For the full recipe, check out the steps ahead! To start, you need to muddle your strawberries and mint. Take one cup of fresh strawberries and slice them. Place the slices in a mixing bowl or large glass. Add 10 to 12 fresh mint leaves to the bowl. Use the back of a spoon or a muddler to press down gently. This action helps release the juicy strawberry flavors and mint oils. Be careful not to mash them too hard. You want to break them up, not turn them into mush. Next, add two tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice to the muddled mix. This juice gives your drink a nice tartness. Then, add two tablespoons of honey or agave syrup. You can adjust the amount based on your taste. Stir the mixture well until the sweetener dissolves completely. This ensures that each sip is sweet and tasty. Now it's time to serve your mocktail! Fill two glasses halfway with ice cubes. This keeps the drink cool and refreshing. Strain the strawberry-mint mixture into the glasses, leaving some room at the top. Finally, top each glass with soda water or sparkling water. Stir gently to mix everything together. For a lovely finish, garnish with mint sprigs and a few slices of fresh strawberries on top.

They add sweetness and a bright color. Mint leaves bring a cool taste that pairs well. You can also try adding basil or cucumber for a twist. Basil adds an earthy note, while cucumber gives a refreshing crunch. Experiment to find your favorite mix. Ice levels matter for the right drink. Too much ice can dilute your flavors. Start with a handful of ice cubes in each glass. If it’s too strong, add more soda water. Balancing sweetness and tartness is key. If it’s too sweet, add more lime juice. Taste as you go to find your perfect blend. Creative glassware can make your drink pop. Use tall glasses or even mason jars for a fun look. Decorative garnishes are a must.

The rest of the recipe stays the same. This keeps your drink fresh and exciting each time you make it. Want to add a tropical vibe? Mix in some pineapple or coconut flavors.
