Fancied Up Strawberry Limeade

So I opened the fridge and saw a lonely little half a lime and quite a few strawberries...next thing you know I am running around the kitchen trying to find my martini shaker. I am sure I took this up a few level higher than it needed to be but no regrets over here =)

Ingredients:
1/8 cup fresh lime juice
3 oz strawberries, stems removed rinsed and mushed up, as smooth as you can get it!
1 packet splenda
1/2 cup diet beverage of choice ( I used Propel Zero Lemon Flavored)
a few ice cubes

Make this as easy or as difficult as you want.

I  mixed the splenda with the strawberries and let it sit while I did the rest.
Put the lime juice, ice and beverage in martini shaker, let it sit for a moment, then SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE :)

Pour in to the glass, add strawberries and stir slightly.

Now I could have put it all in the shaker but I could bear the thought of losing any of my loverly strawberry chunks!
