• A bottle or can (12 oz) of Truly Hard Seltzer 
• 1 oz Vodka or Gin (If you like a bit of a kick)
• 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
• 1/2 oz simple syrup based on desired sweetness
• Fresh berries, sprigs of mint leaves, or citrus slices to garnish
• Ice cubes

Instructions

1. Prepare: Chill Your glassware in the freezer for a few minutes to help keep your drink cold and crisp.
2. Mix: If using vodka or gin, add fresh lime juice and simple syrup over ice in a mixing glass. Stir well to combine.
3. Pour: Strain the mixture into a chilled glass filled with ice cubes. Allow bubbles to stay bubbly using a pretty collar pour,​slowly top with Truly Hard Seltzer.
4. Garnish: Top with a couple of fresh berries, and some mint leaves, or sprinkle with freshly grated lemon zest for color and flavor.

Serving Suggestions

• Fruity Twist: Try different Truly flavors such as berry, citrus, or pineapple together with the same flavored fresh fruit garnishes.
• Herb-infused water: In a glass of fresh cool mint / holy basil leaves add one to get that refreshment.
• Mocktail Version: If you want the flavor but not the alcohol make it a mocktail by leaving out vodka or gin for more fresh fruit juice.

Tips and Variations

• Sweet Drink: Changes the level of sweetness to your liking by changing how much simple syrup goes in it.
• Ice Adjustment: Crushed Ice for colder drinks, large cubes to prevent early dilution.
• Spicier Note: If you like a bit of spice, muddle in some jalapeño or garnish with pickled peppers.

Ingredient Substitutes

• Vodka/gin: Replace it with a non-alcoholic version or replace by flavored seltzers (and keep halal).
• Simple Syrup: Honey or agave syrup for a natural sweetener, sugar-free liquid alternative to the sugar-based syrup.
• Fresh Lime Juice: I use lemon juice sometimes for a different citrus twist, or lime extract in place of the rum gives a strong flavor.
• Fresh Fruit or Vegetables: Switch out the berries, with cucumber slices, basil, or rosemary amendment.

Frequently Asked Questions
