Print Recipe

A light, bubbly, and refreshing homemade punch combining fresh strawberries, lemon juice, and sparkling water, perfect for summer parties and casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–6 lemons)
  • 4 cups chilled sparkling water (plain or lemon-flavored)
  • 2–4 tablespoons honey or granulated sugar, to taste
  • Ice cubes, as needed for serving
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Lemon slices (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Rinse 2 cups of fresh strawberries, hull, and slice into halves or quarters.
  2. Place the sliced strawberries in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth but still vibrant red. Pulse a few times if you prefer some texture.
  3. Roll lemons on the counter, cut in half, and squeeze out about 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain out seeds.
  4. In a large pitcher, combine the strawberry puree, fresh lemon juice, and 2-4 tablespoons of honey or sugar. Stir vigorously until the sweetener dissolves completely. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
  5. Just before serving, add about 2 cups of ice cubes and pour in 4 cups of chilled sparkling water. Stir gently to combine without losing the bubbles.
  6. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

Add sparkling water just before serving to keep the fizz. For colder punch without dilution, freeze strawberries or lemon slices in ice cubes ahead of time. Adjust sweetness gradually to taste. Use organic strawberries and Meyer lemons for best flavor. Substitute honey with agave or simple syrup if desired.
