Ingredients

For the honey simple syrup

1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup water

For the mocktail

1-2 strawberries, sliced or roughly chopped
2-3 leaves fresh basil, torn
3/4 of an ounce lime juice, freshly squeezed

Instructions

Make the honey simple syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the honey and the water. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir until honey has dissolved. Cool completely.
To make the mocktail, add the sliced strawberries and torn basil leaves to a glass. Using a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon, muddle the strawberries and basil together until juicy and fragrant. Add crushed ice to the glass. Add the lime juice and simple syrup. Top with the sparkling water, and stir to combine. Garnish with a slice of lime or strawberry, and a basil leaf, if desired. Enjoy!
