A Taste of Summer
August is the month of vacation. In France and in Italy, everything slows down.
Days feel longer, lighter, and quietly more beautiful.
It is also the time of my absolute favourite fruit: strawberry.
For this reason, I want to share a simple pleasure with you. A drink that feels like summer itself.
Non-alcoholic strawberry Margarita
This recipe is easy to make and very enjoyable.
These are the ingredients for four glasses.
- 500 g cooled strawberries (you can also use frozen ones)
- 125 ml cooled orange juice (I prefer honey water)
- 125 ml cooled sparkling water
- 40 ml cooled lemon juice (you can also use lime juice)
- Ice cubes (optional but they make your drink smoother)
Garnish
Keep 2-4 strawberries and 4 slices of lime or lemon
Instructions
- Wash and clean the strawberries
- Cut them in slices or small cubes
- Put all ingredients in a blender
- Garnish 4 high glasses with lemon and strawberries
- Add the mocktail
Enjoy!
There is, of course, also the original Margarita with Tequila, which is delicious in its own right.
However, this version carries a different kind of pleasure. Light, refreshing, and perfect for long summer afternoons when time feels unimportant.
