Non-Alcoholic Strawberry Mojito

Description
In the summer, berries are everywhere, and it's a shame not to take advantage of them. The strawberry mojito is one of the best variations of the classic cocktail. It has liveliness, lightness, and a delightful tang, with the aroma of fresh seasonal strawberries that is unmistakable. However, instead of strawberries, you can use blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, or watermelon flesh. In short, enjoy the gifts of summer to the fullest.
