This summer I will be hanging poolside (okay it’s a kiddie pool, but who cares), super pregnant. So it’s so long frozen strawberry margs, hello mocktail season! These are two of my absolute favorites to serve on hot summer days! They are super easy to throw together, and are festive enough for those who aren’t imbibing to not feel left out!
Strawberry Fauxjito
- 2-3 Limes
- 1 lb Strawberries
- 2 sprigs Mint
- 1 2 liter Diet Sprite
Juice 2 of your limes and add them to the pitcher. Leave one back for drink embellishments.
Use a potatoe masher to smash about 3/4 of your strawberries. Leave some back for drink embelishments.
Use a muddler or a wooden spoon to press the mint springs into the bottom of the pitcher. This will allow the oil from the mint to release.
Add in your mashed strawberries and wait to add your Diet Sprite until ready to serve.
Simply mix it all together and enjoy. You can use the left over limes and strawberries to add a little something extra to the cups.
Mint Lemonade
- 2 pouches Dry Lemonade Mix ((We really like Crystal Light))
- 4 quarts Sparkling Water
- 3 sprigs Mint
- 2 Lemons
Place your mint sprigs at the bottom of the pitcher and muddle them using a wooden spoon.
Mix the lemonade powder and sparkling water together in the pitcher.
Add in the juice of one lemon and stir.
Finish off with lemon slices to decorate the glasses.
