Ingredients
- 1 orange
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 pint fresh strawberries
- 4 ounces rum, optional
Instructions
- Using a vegetable peeler or zester, remove the zest of the orange, taking care to leave the pith behind.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat whisk together the sugar with 1/4 cup water and the orange zest. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
- Reserve 4 strawberries for garnish and remove the hulls and roughly chop the remainder. Add the strawberries with the juice of the orange to a blender and fill with ice. Add the cooled orange simple syrup and blend until smooth. Add the rum, if desired, and blend. Pour into glasses and garnish with reserved strawberries.

Reviews
I made this as a happy hour drink at my house over the weekend and it’s delicious! I made two batches – one with strawberries and one with raspberries. Both were great!! I’ll definitely make this again.
I mixed this up (without alcohol) and put it in the ice cream freezer for a yummy frozen treat – the kids loved it!
