Strawberry Lime Mockarita

Ingredients
2 cups ice
¼ cup agave
3 cups strawberries
¼ tablespoon lime juice
1 lime wedge
1 cup seltzer

Creative Additions
¼ tsp. cinnamon

Preparation - Place all ingredients in a blender except seltzer. Put blender on crush mode and blend until smooth. Add seltzer and pulse a few times to blend (add cinnamon if desired). Serve with a lime slice for garnish.

Technique:  Balance sweetness with seltzer water and ice and keep the calories in check too.
Taste: The kick of citrus helps bring out the berries ripeness.
Try: Try it with cinnamon as this adds character.
Tip: Limit added sugars. Choose added sugars that add flavor beyond just sweet.
