🧃 Ingredients (Serves 2–3):

• 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled (or frozen, thawed)

• 1 cup cold apple juice (clear or cloudy, as preferred)

🧑‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Blend the base

   • In a blender, combine strawberries, apple juice, lemon juice, and honey/agave (if using). Blend until smooth.

2. Strain (optional)

   • For a smoother drink, strain through a fine sieve to remove seeds and pulp.

3. Assemble the cooler

   • Pour in the strawberry-apple mix until ¾ full.

   • Top off with sparkling water or soda for fizz (optional).

4. Garnish & serve

   • Add a sprig of mint, a slice of apple or strawberry, and enjoy chilled.

🧁 Perfect Pairing:

• Great with light tea sandwiches, fruit tarts, or vanilla sponge cake

• Also works beautifully as a base for a cocktail — just add a splash of vodka or white rum
