Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh strawberries
• 4 large Lemons
• 5 cups Cold water
• 2 cups Ice cubes
• 2 tablespoons Stevia or monk fruit sweetener (optional, to taste)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems. Slice them in half.

Step 2

Juice the lemons until you have about 3/4 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain the juice to remove any seeds and pulp, if desired.

Step 3

In a blender, combine the strawberries and 1 cup of cold water. Blend until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the strawberry puree through a fine mesh strainer over a pitcher to remove the pulp and seeds, if desired. Use a spatula to help press the liquid through.

Step 5

Add the fresh lemon juice to the pitcher, followed by the remaining 4 cups of cold water.

Step 6

Taste the lemonade. If additional sweetness is preferred, stir in stevia or monk fruit sweetener 1 tablespoon at a time, tasting and adjusting to your preference.

Step 7

Add ice cubes to the pitcher and stir well.

Step 8

Serve immediately over additional ice in individual glasses, and garnish with a fresh strawberry or lemon slice if desired.
