For strawberry syrup
- 2 cups strawberries tops removed and berries cut in quarters

One Strawberry Lemonade Mimosa Mocktail
- 1 lemon wedge
- 2 mint leaves
- 3 tablespoons strawberry syrup
- 3 ounces lemonade
- 2 ounces sparkling apple cider or sparkling water
Instructions
Making strawberry syrup
- Trim the green tops off of your strawberries. Cut the smaller ones in half and the larger ones in quarters. If using frozen sliced strawberries, just toss them in frozen. Add one cup of granulated sugar.
- Add one cup of water and heat over medium high heat until simmering. Simmer just until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and place a lid on the pan. Let steep for 30 minutes.
- Strain through a wire mesh strainer, being careful not to press the berries or your syrup will be cloudy. Pour into a container with a lid, like a mason jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Making one mimosa mocktail
(Adjust amounts based on size of glass being used)
- Add a lemon wedge and a couple of mint leaves to the bottom of a glass.
- Use a muddler, or the handle of a wooden spoon, to muddle (crush) the mint leaves and lemon wedge together.
- Pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of strawberry syrup into the glass.
- Add ice the glass if desired, filling it about halfway. Add lemonade to the top of the ice, about 3 ounces.
- Top it off with 2 to 3 ounces of sparkling cider (or seltzer).
- Garnish the rim with a ripe strawberry and a sprig of fresh mint. Enjoy!

Notes
Making a Pitcher of Strawberry Mimosas
Make a pitcher of non alcoholic strawberry lemonade mimosas for parties, brunches, or any festive gathering! This should make enough to fill about 10 to 12 champagne flutes.- Prepare the pitcher: In a large pitcher, muddle 4 to 6 lemon wedges with about 12 mint leaves. Add 1 cup of strawberry syrup and 3 cups of lemonade into the pitcher. Stir well until the syrup is fully mixed in. Right before serving, pour in the sparkling cider and gently stir to combine. Be careful not to stir too vigorously to preserve the bubbles.
- Garnish: Add fresh strawberries and lemon slices into the pitcher for extra flavor and a pretty presentation.
- Serve: Pour into glasses filled with ice and garnish each glass with a strawberry and a sprig of mint for a finishing touch.
