Let me recommend a refreshing summer drink that perfectly mixes the sweet tang of strawberries with the boldness of tequila, topped off with a splash of tonic for that essential fizz. This Strawberry Tequila Soda is a favorite for its simple yet flavorful profile, which combines fresh, muddled strawberries and a kick of lime to enhance the natural zest. It’s the perfect choice for cooling down on a hot day or kicking off an evening with friends.
