1
Prepare glass
Chill a highball or Collins glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail. Discard the ice water and add fresh ice (about 3/4 full) to the glass.
2
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Tito's Vodka, 1 oz strawberry purée, 2 oz pineapple juice, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice (about 3/4 full).
3
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the exterior of the shaker is very cold and the mixture is well chilled and slightly frothy.
4
Strain and top
Double-strain (using the shaker's strainer or a fine-mesh strainer) into the prepared glass over fresh ice. Top with 2 oz club soda (or lemon-lime soda for a sweeter finish). Gently stir once with a bar spoon to combine without flattening the soda.
5
Garnish and serve
Float a lemon slice on the rim or on top of the drink. Serve immediately with a straw if desired.
