Here is another warm weather cooling mocktail with a pleasant colour and sweet taste, but without too many calories. It is an easy recipe with only a few ingredients, and can be made in just a couple of minutes. It can be made with fresh berries, but frozen ones give it more of a cooling effect. It can be garnished in any way to add to presentation (Paper umbrellas? Why not?)
Ingredients:
- Ginger Ale 300 ml
- Strawberries 5 or 6
- Ice 1 cup
Method:
Place the strawberries into a blender and add 100 ml of ginger ale. Blitz until fruit is evenly blended (and if using frozen fruit that no chunks remain). Pour fruit mixture into a large glass and add ice until glass is 1/2 to 2/3 full. Top off with ginger ale, and place a strawberry (or other garnish) on top. The ice should suspend the topping.
