1
Prepare the Strawberries
Wash the strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and slice them into halves.
2
Make the Shrub
In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Stir well and let it sit for about 30 minutes until the strawberries release their juices.
3
Add Vinegar
After 30 minutes, add the apple cider vinegar to the strawberry mixture. Mix well and transfer to a sterilized jar or bottle. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

4
Prepare the Glass
In a glass, muddle the fresh mint leaves to release their oils and aroma.
5
Add Lemon Juice
Pour the fresh lemon juice over the muddled mint in the glass.
6
Mix with Shrub
Add 2 tablespoons of the strawberry shrub to the glass with mint and lemon juice.
7
Add Ice and Seltzer
Fill the glass with ice cubes to your liking and top it off with seltzer water. Stir gently to combine.
8
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and serve immediately with a straw or stirring stick.
