It’s fresh, fizzy, fruity, and just the right amount of boozy. The muddled strawberries and mint bring brightness, while coconut water adds a smooth tropical vibe.

Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
- 8 fresh mint leaves
- 2 oz Tito’s Handmade Vodka
- 1 oz coconut water
- ½ oz fresh lime juice
- ½ oz simple syrup (1:1 sugar and water, cooled)
- Club soda
- Ice
- Strawberry slices and mint sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
1. Muddle the Base:
In a cocktail shaker or mixing glass, gently muddle the fresh strawberries and mint leaves to release their juices and oils. Don’t over-muddle the mint—it should be fragrant, not bitter.
2. Add the Liquids:
Pour in the Tito’s Handmade Vodka, coconut water, lime juice, and simple syrup.
3. Shake it Up:
Add ice to the shaker and shake well for about 15 seconds, until everything is chilled and well blended.
4. Strain and Pour:
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice.
5. Top with Fizz:
Top off the cocktail with club soda to your desired level of bubbliness.
6. Garnish and Serve:
Garnish with sliced strawberries and a fresh sprig of mint. Serve with a straw and enjoy!
Tips for Success
- Use ripe strawberries for the sweetest, juiciest flavor.
- Chill your glass beforehand for a crisp, cool presentation.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup depending on your taste.
- Want to make it a mocktail? Omit the vodka and double up on coconut water and club soda.

Storage & Make-Ahead Tips
