Faith – Food – Simple Living

Published by

Bursting with sweetness, this summer drink is worth making from scratch.

8 oz. fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
¾ cup sugar
10 oz. fresh lemon juice
5½ cups sparkling water, chilled
Crushed ice

1. Combine strawberries and sugar in a medium bowl; toss to coat. Let stand about 10 minutes or until strawberries soften slightly and release their juices.

2. Transfer strawberry mixture to a large pitcher. Add the lemon juice. Use an immersion blender to blend until mostly smooth. Slowly pour sparkling water into pitcher; stir to combine.

3. Pour strawberry lemonade into ice-filled glasses. Garnish with additional fresh strawberries.
