Strawberry Lime Rickey

⅔ cup hulled strawberries, quartered
2 teaspoons sugar
1 lime
3½ ounces gin, we used Golden Moon Gin
½ cup chilled soda water

Combine strawberries and sugar in a pint glass. Cut lime in half. Juice one half of lime into glass. Cut two small wedges from other half of lime and save for garnish. Juice remaining lime into strawberry mixture; discard squeezed lime. With a muddler, muddle strawberry/lime mixture until well blended and sugar has dissolved. Add gin to glass; cover glass and shake well for 30 seconds. Pour strawberry mixture through a strainer evenly into 2 glasses. Add ice to each glass; top each glass with ¼ cup soda water. Garnish with lime and strawberry slices.
