Sparkling Limeade

Ingredients

1 cup strawberries, quartered*
1/2 cup raspberries*
4 limes, juiced (about 1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon agave nectar**
2 1/2 cups seltzer water or club soda

*Using frozen fruit? No need to thaw or drain it.
** Agave nectar can be found in the health-food aisle at most supermarkets. You can substitute your favorite sweetener or omit it.

This refreshing and not-too-sweet beverage is almost too pretty to drink. Almost!

Minutes to Prepare: 5
Number of Servings: 5 eight-ounce servings

Directions

Pure the fruit, lime juice, and agave nectar in a blender or food processor until smooth. Pour 1/2 cup into a glass filled with ice and top with 1/2 cup seltzer. Repeat with the other glasses.

You can refrigerate the fruit juice mixture for up to a week, but add the seltzer just before drinking.
