Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 ½ cups fresh lemon juice (from about 6 large lemons)
- ½ cup honey
- 5 cups cold water
- Lemon slices (for garnish)
Instructions
- Blend it up. Add the fresh strawberries, honey, and 1 cup of cold water to a high-powered blender. Blend on high speed for about 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is very smooth and well combined.
- Stir together. Pour the blended strawberry mixture into a large pitcher. Add the fresh lemon juice and the remaining 4 cups of cold water. Stir the lemonade thoroughly to combine. A light froth may form on top which will settle with time or can be skimmed off if preferred.
- Serve. Pour the strawberry lemonade into glasses over ice cubes. Garnish with lemon slices for an attractive and tasty presentation. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and freshness.
Notes
- Use ripe, fresh strawberries for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
- Adjust honey quantity to taste if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet drink.
- Strain the blended mixture if you prefer a smoother lemonade without pulp.
- Keep refrigerated and consume within 2 days for optimal freshness.
- For an adult version, add a splash of vodka or gin if desired.
