A refreshing drink that combines the sweet flavors of strawberries with the tartness of fresh lemons, perfect for summer days.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups Fresh Strawberries, hulled and halved
1 cup Fresh Lemons, juiced (about 4-5 large lemons)
¾ cup Granulated Sugar (adjust to taste)
2 cups Water, divided
3 cups Ice
Mint Leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the strawberries under cold water, hull them, and cut them in half. Place them in a blender.
Roll the lemons on a countertop to soften them, then cut them in half and juice them until you have 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain if necessary and add to the blender.
Pour the granulated sugar into the blender with the strawberries and lemon juice. Adjust after tasting.
Pour in 1 cup of cold water to help blend everything smoothly.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth, about 30 seconds.
If desired, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher.
Add the remaining 1 cup of cold water and ice to the pitcher. Stir well.
Pour the Easy Frozen Strawberry Lemonade into glasses over additional ice if desired. Garnish with mint leaves.
