In the middle of a 3 day juice cleanse by Juice by Ginger, I felt like a little fresh pick me up. I know your not meant to deviate from the 4 a day juices, but seen as how this is 90% water I thought why not.
This drink is absolutely perfect for any summers day, I salivate at the thought of it while on holidays sitting by the pool!
Don't be afraid to add a swig or 3 of gin or vodka! It magically transforms into a berry mojito, my favourite!

METHOD
To your blender add the raspberries, strawberries & lime juice. Blitz on full power until you have a smooth thick mixture. If you are really fussy you can sieve away the seeds(if there are any left), but I just prefer to keep blitzing until mostly smooth.
Add 7 or 8 mint leaves and blitz again until the mint leaves are nearly broken down.

Divide one cup of ice among the four glasses of your choice. I served mine in mason jars.
Add the other 3 cups of ice to your pitcher. Pour in the raspberry concentrate and add in the agave syrup.
Next pour in the sparkling water and stir well.

Slice up 2 or 3 strawberries and add them to the pitcher, along with a few whole mint leaves. I wanted each jar to look pretty so after pouring the raspberry & lime drink into each jar I then dressed them with a wedge of lime, a few more cut up strawberries, a raspberry and a spring of mint.
Pop in two straws and slurp away happily!
Enjoy your fresh, cooling, delicious drink!
