What You’ll Need

Agave nectar adds some smokey sweetness to every sip. Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact amounts.

  • Strawberries They don’t need to be hulled, but you must remove the stems.
  • Lime juice Lemon juice works too.
  • Agave nectar Raw honey and maple syrup are great swaps.
  • Water – You can also use strawberry, orange, or cranberry juice.
  • Club soda Sparkling water is fine too.

Can I Use Frozen Strawberries?

Yes! Make sure they’re fully thawed and drained. It’s not the end of the world if they’re not completely thawed but it does make blending easier and prevents the strawberries’ flavor from watering down.

  • Blend it. Except for the club soda, add all of the ingredients to the blender and process until smooth.
  • Make it smooth. Strain the mixture. Press the pulp down so that you’re getting as much strawberry concentrate as possible.
  • Serve. Pour the mixture into a pitcher. Add soda water. Stir gently and add ice. Enjoy!

Can This Be Prepared In Advance?

Absolutely! Prepare the recipe up to 2 days in advance but hold the club soda until right before serving. This way the limeade will be bubbly and fizzy when you serve it, but you still got a head-start with the recipe.
