Ingredients

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 cups sparkling water (or club soda)

Ice cubes

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Mash the strawberries gently with a fork or a potato masher until they're juicy and well combined with the sugar. Let this mixture sit for about 10 minutes to develop the syrup.

Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the strawberry mixture and stir well.

In a serving glass, add ice cubes to your preference.

Pour the muddled strawberry mixture over the ice, filling the glass about halfway.

Slowly pour sparkling water over the strawberry mixture until the glass is full. Gently stir to combine.

Taste the soda and add more sugar or lemon juice if desired to achieve your preferred sweetness and tartness.

Garnish with fresh mint leaves if you want an extra touch of freshness.
