This strawberry mint mocktail is the perfect refreshing drink after a warm summer day! The raw honey takes the place of the processed sugar making this drink refined sugar free.
If you love mocktails as much as I do, be sure to check out my other fun drinks on the blog like my Watermelon Mocktail, Grapefruit Mocktail, and Strawberry Simple Syrup.
4 Simple Ingredients:
- Strawberries– Obviously!
- Honey– The honey takes the place of the sugar. It gives the drink a soothing taste. I have found that even regular mocktails I still feel “hungover” the next day due to the sugar rather than the alcohol itself. The honey takes care of that!
- Mint– Fresh strawberries pair so nicely with mint. It gives any drink or dish a kick. I like mint because I find it to be so soothing for my stomach.
- Filtered water & club soda- When you make the simple syrup, be sure to use filtered water. When you make the drink, mix it with club soda. DO not use tonic water. Tonic water is loaded with added sugar. The drink will be sweet enough with the syrup itself.
How to store the syrup:
- I like to store all mocktail syrups in the fridge in an airtight mason jar for up to 2 weeks in the fridge! In this recipe you will have enough syrup to make approximately 8 drinks.
Equipment needed:
- A large saucepan– This is needed to simmer the syrup.
- A large bowl (preferably with a lip)- Once the syrup is made you will drain it into a bowl, it makes it easier to pour the syrup in the mason jar when it has a lip on it. I like these bowls!
- A strainer-This will be used to strain the mint and strawberry syrup over the bowl. It is best if the strainer is just a tad smaller than the bowl so it strains easily.
- Mason jar– You can use the airtight mason jar to store the syrup for up to 2 weeks!
