Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Strawberry-Rhubarb Syrup

    In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh strawberries, chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the strawberries and rhubarb have broken down and the mixture has thickened slightly.

  3. 3

    Strain the Syrup

    Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

  4. 4

    Mix with Sparkling Water

    In a large glass, combine 1/4 cup of the syrup with 1/2 cup of sparkling water. Stir well to mix.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Fill the glass with ice cubes, add more sparkling water to taste, and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
