Ingredients

Scale

Strawberry Mix

  • 4 cups frozen strawberries
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • 2 cups club soda (divided)

To Serve

  • ½ cup club soda (remaining portion)
  • Vanilla bean ice cream (amount as desired for topping)

Instructions

  1. Blend Strawberry Base: In a blender, combine the frozen strawberries, granulated sugar, lime juice, and 2 cups of club soda. Blend until smooth to create a sweet and tangy strawberry mixture.
  2. Incorporate Fizz: Slowly stir in the remaining ¾ cup of club soda to the blended mixture to maintain its fizzy texture without losing carbonation.

  • Use good quality vanilla bean ice cream to enhance the dessert’s richness.
  • Serve immediately for best fizz and texture.
  • This recipe is easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings.
