Notes
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor; bottled lime juice can alter the drink’s freshness.
- For a sweeter or tarter drink, adjust the simple syrup and lime juice to taste.
- Strawberry puree can be made by blending fresh strawberries until smooth.
- If you prefer a frozen version, blend the ingredients with ice instead of shaking.
- Ensure the cocktail glass is well chilled to keep the drink cool longer.
