It is heating up here in Utah. That means I am reaching for our favorite refreshing drinks (heeeeello mint limeade) and diving head first into new flavors.
While we adore mint in almost every beverage, I knew it was time to venture out and try something new. After whipping up the most insanely delicious balsamic strawberry dessert, I decided I was going to have to try that flavor profile in a beverage.
Fast forward a few failed attempts and I give you this refreshing:
Strawberry Spritzer Recipe

Ingredients for a fresh strawberry mocktail:
- Strawberries
- Limes
- Simple syrup
- Balsamic vinegar
- Club soda
- Basil leaves
How to make the perfect mocktail:
It’s easy as 1 -2 -3.
- Pick your flavors. We love to pair a sweet fruit with a little citrus. Lemons and limes are always a good choice, but don’t be afraid to mix it up with grapefruit or orange juice!
- Simple syrup is your best friend. Add equal parts water and sugar to a small saucepan. Heat until the sugar is dissolved. Cool completely. This tiny recipe will be a life savor when you have a drink that is a little too tart or in need of a little sweetening. Add a teaspoon or two just before serving.
- Top things off with chilled club soda. We have also been known to use flavored sparkling waters but good ol’ club soda works with almost any flavor profile.
