Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh strawberries
• 6 large Lemons
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 6 cups Water
• 2 cups Ice cubes
• 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the strawberries and remove the stems. Slice them into halves or quarters if they are particularly large.

Step 2

In a blender, place the strawberries along with 1/4 cup of water. Blend until smooth to create a strawberry puree.

Step 3

Strain the strawberry puree through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or pitcher to remove the seeds. Discard the seeds.

Step 4

Juice the lemons using a citrus juicer or reamer. This should yield approximately one cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain the lemon juice to remove any pulp or seeds.

Step 5

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Stir continuously until the sugar completely dissolves to create a simple syrup. This should take about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Step 6

In a large pitcher, combine the strawberry puree, lemon juice, and the cooled simple syrup.

Step 7

Add the remaining 4 cups of cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine. Adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar or water if desired.

Step 8

Refrigerate the strawberry lemonade for at least 30 minutes to chill and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Before serving, add the ice cubes to the pitcher or directly to individual glasses.

Step 10

Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint, if desired, and serve immediately.
