This is a really easy summer berry cocktail recipe. Super simple to make with simple ingredients. Use fresh or frozen berries- whatever you have available. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and fresh raspberries. For summer drink recipes I love adding these adorable floral paper straws!

Aren’t these glasses cute? Order them on Amazon. I also love the glass pouring pitchers that Libby makes!
How to make Strawberry Cocktails:
Step 1: In a small saucepan over low to medium heat, combine the raspberries, strawberries, water, and sugar. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar dissolves and berries soften.
Step 2: Press the mixture through a wire mesh strainer. Let the juice cool. Discard the pulp and seeds.
Step 3: In a pouring pitcher, combine the berry juices with rum and lime juice.
Step 4: Divide the ice cubes evenly among 4 to 6 glass tumblers or cocktail glasses. Pour the mixture evenly over the ice in each glass. Top with lemon-lime soda, and garnish with fresh mint and raspberries.
