Hazelnut Free Sparkling Lemonade Berry Spritz
Fresh strawberries muddled down to a deeply ruby juice, bright lemon, a touch of maple syrup, and a generous pour of sparkling water — this spritz is the kind of drink that makes any afternoon feel like a celebration. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of tree nuts, so there's no label-scanning or substitution stress involved whatsoever. The maple syrup does a beautiful job of sweetening without overpowering the fruit, and the fine-mesh straining step gives you a silky, pulp-free base that looks stunning in the glass. A gentle stir at the end keeps all that fizz intact, so the first sip is just as lively as the last. Mint leaves and a lemon wheel on the rim take it from casual to genuinely impressive with almost zero extra effort. It's refreshing, vibrant, and completely crowd-pleasing — the kind of recipe you'll find yourself making on repeat all summer long.
