If you don't have a cocktail shaker, you can use a mason jar or any container with a tight-fitting lid.
To make a large batch of this cocktail, simply multiply the ingredients by the number of servings you need and mix them in a pitcher.
For a sweeter taste, add more simple syrup or honey. For a stronger taste, add more vodka or triple sec. You can also adjust the amount of lime juice to your liking.
Don't forget to garnish the cocktail with a slice of fresh strawberry and a sprig of mint for a beautiful presentation.
