Instrucciones

1. 1

   Hull and quarter the strawberries and place them in a cocktail shaker or mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar and lemon juice.

2. 2

   Muddle the strawberries vigorously with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon for about 30–45 seconds, until the berries are fully broken down and a vibrant, juicy mixture forms. The granulated sugar will help draw out the juices.

3. 3

   If using vodka, add it to the shaker now. Fill the shaker with a handful of ice, seal, and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds until well chilled.

4. 4

   If NOT using vodka, simply stir the muddled strawberry mixture well to dissolve the granulated sugar.

5. 5

   Strain the strawberry mixture through a sieve into a spouted measuring cups or pitcher (Large), pressing gently on the solids to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids.

6. 6

   Divide the strawberry mixture evenly among 4 chilled champagne flutes — about 1.5 to 2 tablespoons per glass.

7. 7

   Slowly top each glass with chilled champagne or champagne, pouring gently down the side of the glass to preserve the bubbles. Fill to just below the rim.

8. 8

   Garnish each glass with a whole strawberries on the rim and a sprig of fresh mint, if desired. Serve immediately.
