Ingredients
Strawberry Simple Syrup:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sliced strawberries
Mocktail:
1 cup whole milk or half-and-half
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1 tablespoon strawberry simple syrup
2 strawberries, sliced with stems still attached, for garnish
Semisweet chocolate or similar, for garnish
Ground cinnamon, for garnish
Directions
- For the strawberry simple syrup: Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced strawberries. Using a fork, press the strawberries to release their juices. Allow the mixture to boil for 1 to 2 minutes. Steep for at least 10 minutes. Strain the mixture into a resealable jar. Cover and keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- For the mocktail: Combine the milk, chocolate syrup and strawberry simple syrup in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until thoroughly chilled. Strain into 2 martini glasses. To garnish, place a strawberry on the rim of each glass, dust with grated chocolate and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Serve immediately.
