A refreshing summer drink bursting with the flavors of ripe strawberries, zesty lemons, and a vodka kick, perfect for parties and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water dissolved over low heat)
  • 1 cup vodka
  • 3 cups chilled sparkling water (lemon or berry-flavored optional)
  • Ice (enough to fill your pitcher or serving bowl)
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh lemon slices (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Wash, hull, and halve the strawberries, and squeeze fresh lemons to get about 1 cup of juice. If using frozen strawberries, thaw them first.
  2. Make the simple syrup by combining 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. Add the strawberries to a blender along with the cooled simple syrup. Blend until smooth and no chunks remain. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve for a smoother consistency, if desired.
  4. In a large pitcher, mix the strawberry puree, lemon juice, vodka, and sparkling water. Stir gently until well combined.
  5. Fill the pitcher with ice and stir again. Add fresh mint leaves and lemon slices for garnish.
  6. Pour into glasses filled with ice, and garnish each glass with a strawberry and a sprig of mint for a fancy touch.
