Cocktail Wednesday - Strawberry Lime Rickey

This week's drink was from Cooking Light, March 2017.

Ingredients:

• Strawberries, sliced
• Sugar, 2T
• Lime
• Club soda
• Gin

For the first batch, I muddled the strawberries with the sugar, added the lime juice, put it all in a shaker with the gin, and then strained into glasses with ice.  It was such a waste of strawberries, that we ended up putting the remaining strawberries in the bottom of the glasses.

 

For the second batch, I put everything in the blender and then poured the slushy mixture over ice, no strawberry waste, but not as pretty. (no pictures sorry).

This was a very nice drink.  Will definitely have again.
