Gluten-Free, Vegan, Serves 4
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, halved
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup
- 2 cups sparkling water
- Ice cubes
- Lime slices and basil leaves for garnish
Directions:
Combine the fresh strawberries, lime juice, torn basil leaves, and agave syrup in a blender. Blend until smooth. If desired, strain the strawberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp and seeds, although leaving it as is will maintain more fiber. Fill each serving glass with ice cubes. Pour the strawberry-lime-basil mixture equally among the glasses. Top off each glass with sparkling water or soda water. Stir gently to combine. Optionally, garnish the rim of each glass with a lime slice or wedge and a small basil leaf for a decorative touch.
