Ingredients
- 16 oz strawberries hulled and cut in half
- ¼ cup lime juice I used 1 juicy lime, fresh
- 2 tablespoon honey or more to taste
- 6-10 mint leaves
- ½ cup gin
- club soda to top off
- 2 cups ice
- 3 tablespoon sugar
- lime strawberries and mint for garnish
Instructions
- Blend the strawberries, lime juice, and honey in a high-speed blender. (You will want to drink this with a straw, but try to refrain.)
- Rub the rims of two glasses with a slice of lime then dip in a shallow bowl of sugar. Add ice to glasses.
- In a cocktail shaker, muddle 6-10 mint leaves with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon. Then add 1 ½ cups ice, gin and ½ - ¾ cup strawberry puree mixture. Shake well.
- If you prefer no seeds, you can strain this through a fine mesh sieve. I did not.
- Pour mixture into glasses and top with club soda.
- Garnish with fresh lime, strawberries, and mint.
- Serve with a straw. You may have some leftover strawberry puree - pour it on top of vanilla ice cream.
