Why It Works
- Muddling a beneficiant quantity of strawberries and mint ensures their taste shines by.
- A restrained quantity of easy syrup makes for a refreshing and not-too-sweet drink.
Juicy summer time strawberries are mixed with tart lime juice and shiny mint on this sweet-and-sour vodka cocktail that is effervescent with effervescence. It is mild, not too sugary, and eminently day-drinkable. Do take into account adjusting the quantity of easy syrup relying on the sweetness of your strawberries.
