Units
Scale
- 3 medium strawberries, hulled and diced
- 1 spring fresh mint, or 4–5 leaves
- 1 tablespoon simple syrup, or agave syrup

- 1/2 large grapefruit, juiced
- 2 ounces club soda, or plain sparkling water
- edible flowers, optional for garnish
Instructions
Add the diced strawberries, mint, and simple syrup to a 12-16 ounce glass. Muddle until the strawberries are juicy and the mint is fragrant.
Add a large handful of ice to the glass, followed by the grapefruit juice. Top with the club soda then garnish with edible flowers or grapefruit slices if desired.

Notes
- Agave syrup or honey can be used in place of the simple syrup.
- Plain sparkling water or seltzer can be used in place of the club soda. I recommend chilling it beforehand so that the ice doesn’t melt as quickly!
- Don’t have a muddler? Use a wooden spoon instead!
- To make a pitcher, add 2 cups diced strawberries 6-8 sprigs of fresh mint, and 6-8 tablespoons of simple syrup to a blender or food processor. Pulse a few times until the strawberries are broken down and juicy. Pour this mixture into a pitcher. Juice 4 grapefruits, then add the juice to the pitcher as well. Chill this mixture until you’re ready to serve. Right before serving, stir in 16 ounces chilled club soda. Serve over ice.
