Step-by-Step Instructions

In a blender, combine the ripe sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, freshly squeezed lime juice, and enough water to cover the fruit. Blend on high for about 60 seconds until smooth.
Once blended, pour the mixture into clear glasses, filling each glass about three-quarters full, leaving space for ice or garnishes.
Garnish each glass with fresh lime slices positioned on the rim and toss in a few mint sprigs for added color and aroma.
Chill your Strawberry Lime Water for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
After chilling, serve over ice in your favorite summer glasses and enjoy your refreshing drink.
