Strawberry Lemonade

The Lemonade Brigade

What you need:

  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1 pint of fresh strawberries
  • 1 cup of fresh lemon juice (About 8 lemons)
  • 4-6 cups of cold water (This amount varies based on preferred taste)

Recipe:
Make a simple syrup by combining the sugar with 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and heat until the sugar in completely dissolved; swirl the pan occasionally. Let cool. Once the simple syrup has cooled, puree strawberries in a blender with ½ cup water. In a large pitcher, combine strawberry puree, simple syrup and lemon juice. Add 4-6 cups of cold water- The amount of water you use will depend on your taste, so add as little or as much as you want to achieve your perfect sweet/tart balance. Serve over ice. If desired, garnish with fresh strawberries and lemon slices. If you want to spice up your presentation, add sugar on the rim of your serving glasses by wetting the rim and dipping the glasses in a pile of sugar. Serve.
