I am not usually a fan of lemonade...but my sister had some Simply Lemonade with Raspberry one day, so I snagged a sip. It was SO GOOD...so ever since then I've wanted some, but I've been to cheap to buy some. It is actually on sale this week, but of course not at the store I was at. Michelle at All Home Cooking posted a recipe for strawberry lemonade and I got a steal on 5 lemons the other day(87 cents) so I bought more strawberries to make this!
Strawberry Lemonade- All Home Cooking.All Year Long
1 qt(or 1 lb) strawberries, hulled
1 cup lemon juice(I had 5 lemons and it got me 1 1/4 cup of juice)
4 cups water(2 cups warm)
1 cup sugar
Place strawberries and lemon juice in blender and blend until smooth. Mix 2 cups warm water and sugar until dissolved. Add to juice and add in 2 more cups of cold water. Stir and let chill.
**To us this was more strawberry than lemonade...which worked for me! I may add more lemon juice or cut back on the strawberries next time, but it was REALLY good!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! We love it around here and I get asked to make it all the time. I love how fresh it tastes. :)
