STRAWBERRY BASIL MOCKTAIL
This was born of a need to use up the ageing strawberries in the fridge, plus whatever was growing in the garden. Found a recipe at https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/strawberry-basil-mocktail/ and adapted it in the laziest possible manner. Delightfully refreshing, the lemon, sugar, strawberry and basil all work together well, especially when well-chilled after shaking.

Steps:
- Wash, hull, and roughly chop the strawberries. Cut a lime in half. Juice half of the lime, and slice the other half of the lime for garnishes.
- Muddle the strawberries, lime juice, and basil together using a large mortar and pestle. Alternately, you can use a fork or potato masher. It should be broken down enough so the mixture can fit through a straw, but not too much that there's no texture.
- Divide the berry mixture between two tall glasses. Fill the glasses with crushed ice, and fill to the top with seltzer.
- Garnish with a slice of lime and more fresh basil (both optional).

Tips:
- For a sweeter mocktail, use ripe strawberries. You can also add a tablespoon of honey or agave syrup to taste.
- If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil. Just be sure to use half the amount, as dried basil is more concentrated.
- To make a virgin mojito, simply omit the rum.
- These mocktails can be served with or without ice. If you prefer a cold mocktail, chill the ingredients and glasses before serving.
- Garnish the mocktails with a strawberry slice and a basil leaf for a festive touch.
