22,5 ml 3/4 fl oz fresh lime juice

Equipment

Jigger

Instructions
- First, prepare the strawberry puree: Hull and quarter 2 strawberries, add to a small saucepan with 1 Tablespoon water and 1 teaspoon sugar. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until soft, then cool and strain.
- Hull and quarter the remaining strawberries and place them in the cocktail shaker.
- Add the simple syrup to the shaker and gently muddle the strawberries to release their juice and flavor.
- Add the fresh lime juice and the cooled strawberry puree to the shaker.
- Fill the shaker two-thirds full with ice cubes.
- Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes frosty.
- Double-strain into a chilled coupe or martini glass to remove strawberry seeds and ice shards.
- Top with cold soda water for a light effervescence.
- Garnish with a small strawberry slice and lime wheel on the rim.
Notes
- The strawberry puree adds depth and concentrated flavor without making the drink too thick. If you prefer a sweeter drink, adjust the simple syrup.
