With summer just around the corner, it's time for light, sweet cocktails to ring in the season. Celebrate with this beautiful patriotic triple-berry spritzer. Made with a triple berry simple syrup, tequila, and lemon-lime soda it's the perfect way to enjoy the summertime!
In a medium saucepan, combine ingredients for syrup. Cook on medium until sugar is dissolved and berries have cooked down, about 5 minutes or so.
Remove pan from heat and allow to cool to room temperature
Strain simple syrup mixture to remove berries into a bowl through a fine mesh strainer.
Cocktail
In a cocktail shaker, mix together triple berry simple syrup, tequila, lemon lime soda and lime. Shake lightly. The soda will bubble over if you shake too vigorously.
Pour over a glass of ice into your favorite cocktail glass or stemless wine glass.
Top with a handful of mixed berries and enjoy!
Notes
Be sure to let syrup cool to room temperature before straining.
