Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup strawberries (fresh, cut in half)
  • ½ cup cider vinegar (or substitute balsamic vinegar)

Instructions

  • In a saucepan, bring the water and sugar to a simmer, until the sugar dissolves
  • Add the strawberries, and simmer for 5 minutes
  • Add the vinegar, and simmer for another 5 minutes. Chill to room temperature.
  • Combine this with one cup of sparkling water, or however much you like to get your exact, favorite flavor.

Notes

  • When the mixture is cooled, either strain it, or put it in a blender to puree it
  • If you puree this with the fruit, you’ll have a thicker drink. If you use balsamic vinegar, you’ll think you’re having a fruity cola! This is terrific with sparkling water and dark rum
