emonade, the perfect summer drink, meets strawberry, the yummiest summer fruit. Whip up a batch after taking the kids strawberry picking, or any time you’re craving a refreshing drink on a hot day.
Juice the lemons. You should get about 1 cup of lemon juice. In a bowl or pitcher, mix the sugar with about 1⁄ 2 cup of hot water. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved. In a 2quart pitcher, add strawberry juice, lemon juice, and the sugar mixture. Fill the pitcher halfway with ice, then add 4 to 5 cups water. Stir. Give it a taste. Add more sugar, if desired. Serve cold, and enjoy!
