STRAWBERRY SIMPLE SYRUP:
- 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup organic cane sugar
MANGO PUREE:
- 8 oz. mango chunks (That's about 1 ripe mango, peeled + cubed)
- 1 cup water
- ½ lemon, freshly-squeezed
MOCKTAIL:
- ½ cup mango puree, divded
- ½ cup cooled strawberry simple syrup
- 4 oz. whiskey alternative
- Crushed ice or ice cubes
- Club soda, for topping (I love using Olipop's Lemon-Lime soda)
- Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs, for garnish
- Sliced fresh strawberries, for garnish
TO MAKE THE STRAWBERRY SIMPLE SYRUP:
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add together the sliced strawberries, water and sugar (stirring them to combine) and bring to a boil, about 1-2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for another 2-3 minutes or so. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
TO MAKE THE MANGO PUREE:
Add the mango chunks to a high-powered blender along with the water and freshly-squeeze lemon juice, and blend on high-speed until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
TO MAKE THE MOCKTAILS:
In a cocktail shaker, add the cooled strawberry simple syrup and Ritual Zero Proof Whiskey Alternative (if using), shaking it together until combined. NOTE: You can also whisk everything together in a bowl if it's easier. If you're not using the Alcohol Alternative, then just shake together the juices + simple syrup.
ASSEMBLY: Add the prepared ice cubes (or ice) to a glass(es) then add the mango puree (divided equally), followed by the mocktail mixture until ¾ filled and top with club soda. For additional garnish, add the fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs and sliced strawberries, if desired. Repeat for every serving.
Sip and Enjoy!
- SERVINGS: To make additional mocktails, simply double or triple ingredients, depending on need.
- ALCOHOL: If you'd like to spruce things up with alcohol, feel free to add 2 ounces of whiskey, rum, vodka, etc.
