Ingredients
2cupsfrozen strawberries
¼cuplime juice
2tablespoonsraw honey or other liquid sweeteneroptional
4mint leavesplus extra sprigs for decoration
Sparkling water*
Instructions
Add the strawberries, lime juice, honey, and mint leaves to a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth. If it's not mixing well you can add a splash of water.
Fill glasses halfway with the strawberry mixture, and top the glass with sparkling water. Top with the additional mint and serve immediately.
If you're not serving it all right away, keep the slushy mixture in the fridge and don't add the water until serving. It's best if you have it right away, but still good after it's been in the fridge for a day or two.
Notes
* I have a sparkling-water machine, but you can use any kind that doesn't have anything added to it. You'll need a couple cups of water at minimum.
