Make-Ahead
This strawberry soda can be prepared a few hours in advance. Simply mix the strawberry puree and keep it in the refrigerator. Add the soda just before serving to maintain its fizz.
Storing
While it’s best fresh, leftover soda can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for one day. Keep in mind that it may lose its carbonation.
Freezing
You can freeze leftover strawberry puree in ice cube trays. This allows you to whip up a refreshing soda anytime!
Reheating
Not applicable, as this drink is best served cold and fresh.
