Strawberry Mojito

Ingredients:

• 6-8 fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 10-12 fresh mint leaves
• 2 tbsps fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
• 2-3 tbsps pure maple syrup (adjust to taste)
• 1 cup sparkling water
• Ice cubes

Directions:

In a sturdy glass, add the sliced strawberries, mint leaves, fresh lime juice and pure maple syrup.

Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the strawberries and mint leaves to release their flavors. Be careful not to over-muddle, as you don't want the mint to become bitter.

Fill the glass with ice cubes. Top with sparkling water and stir gently to combine. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

Serves 1

Tips:

• Add a splash of coconut water for additional flavor.
