Homemade Strawberry Lemonade recipe

Happy Monday! I LOVE Strawberry Lemonade. It is my favorite summer sip! Its so refreshing and delicious. And talk about pretty! A couple of you asked for my Strawberry lemonade recipe after the baby shower post. So I decided I’d share my top secret recipe with you….. ok, so its not so top secret, but I’ve tweaked it to get the right amount of strawberry-lemon-sugar ratio so that its a little tart, but berry sweet!

Strawberry Lemonade Recipe

2 cups lemon juice {fresh is best, but store bought taste great too}

2.5 cups granulated sugar

2 cups fresh strawberries

12 cups water

Puree the 2 cups of strawberries. {it will measure approx 1 cup after being pureed} Ideally, its best to strain the strawberry puree through cheesecloth to remove the seeds, but I don’t mind the seeds so I skip this step.  Mix together lemon juice and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in water and add strawberry puree. Mix well. Serve over ice and garnish with a slice of lemon or strawberry. {optional} Yields: 1 Gallon
