Notes
Don't have mint? Skip it.
Don't have a muddler? Use the back of a wooden spoon or a fork to smash the berries with the simple syrup.
I use bubbly water (carbonated water) from my grocery store Superstore in the store brand. I use the unflavored can. You can use something like Pellegrino or Perrier.
Storage: Make as needed.
