Some drinks just feel like summer in a glass — and this is one of them. The Lime Berry Twist is tart, fruity, and fizzy with a pop of lime that makes it feel ultra-refreshing. Whether you’re hosting friends or just want something fun to sip on while the kids run through the sprinkler, this recipe always hits the spot.

It’s simple, pretty, and you can make it with or without alcohol depending on the vibe. We’ve even made this into a fun "spritzer bar" with berries, mint, and citrus slices so everyone can customize their own.

Ingredients

• ½ cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen – raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)

• Juice of 1 lime

• 1–2 teaspoons honey or agave (optional)

• Sparkling water or lemon-lime soda to top

• Ice

• Fresh mint or lime slices for garnish

Optional for grown-ups:

• 1½ oz vodka or gin (per serving)

Instructions

1. In a shaker or mason jar, muddle the berries with lime juice and sweetener until juicy.

2. Fill two glasses with ice. Pour the muddled mixture evenly between them.

3. Top with sparkling water or soda. Stir gently.

4. Garnish with mint and lime if desired. Serve immediately.

Sarah’s Tips

• Use frozen berries if you're out of fresh — they double as ice cubes.

• Want a slushy version? Blend the ingredients with ice for a frozen mocktail.

• Great for kids’ summer parties or baby showers — just skip the alcohol.
