It's berry time! Welcome the season with a recipe that transforms this juicy fruit from a simple snack into a satisfying drink.

6 Servings
Prep 5 min + standing

Ingredients:

2 cups vodka, chilled
1 1/2 pints strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Limoncello
One 750-ml bottle sparkling wine, chilled
6 sugar cubes

Directions:

In a large bowl, stir together the vodka, two-thirds of the sliced strawberries and the granulated sugar. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until the vodka turns pink, about 6 hours. Refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days.
Strain the vodka and divide among 6 tall glasses. Add a splash of limoncello to each glass and top off with the sparkling wine. Drop in a sugar cube and garnish with the remaining strawberry slices.
