4 servings
For the simple syrup
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup water
For the infused water
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
Ingredient noteA low fructose diet limits fruit portions because fructose adds up across servings; the small amount of berries used here keeps the fructose load low, so it is likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid strawberries, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice (from about 4 lemons)
- 4 cups cold still water
- 1 cup sparkling water
For serving
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 4 lemon slices (optional)
- 4 fresh mint sprigs (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the maple syrup and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the syrup is fully dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.

Add the hulled and halved strawberries to the cooled maple syrup and press gently with a spoon to release their juice. Let the berries steep for 15 minutes, then strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a large pitcher, pressing the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
