Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (150g) frozen strawberries
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) simple syrup
- 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water or soda water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Optional: mint leaves for garnish
- Optional: a splash of orange juice
- Optional: agave nectar or honey as a sweetener substitute
Instructions
- Gather 1 cup (150g) frozen strawberries, 2 tablespoons (30ml) fresh lime juice, 2 tablespoons (30ml) simple syrup, 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water or soda water, and 1 cup ice cubes. If using fresh strawberries, hull and slice them before starting.
- Add the frozen strawberries and ice cubes to your blender. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth but still slightly thick with a slushy consistency.
- Pour in the fresh lime juice and simple syrup. Blend again for 10-15 seconds to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness as needed.
- Add cold water or soda water to thin the mixture slightly. Blend for a few seconds more. For fizz, use soda water and stir gently instead of blending.
- Pour into chilled glasses and garnish with a lime wedge or fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Avoid over-blending to prevent ice from melting too much and diluting the drink. Use frozen strawberries for best texture. Fresh lime juice is preferred over bottled. Chill glasses before serving for a colder drink. For a bubbly version, add soda water after blending and stir gently.
