Fresh Strawberry Lemonade Recipe
Ingredients:
2 cups Organic sugar
1 cup Hot water
2 cups Fresh lemon juice
1 gallon Cold water
1 Lemon, sliced
Strawberries, sliced (as many as you desire)
Ice (I like to put fresh blueberries in my ice cubes and freeze)
Optional- Mint sprigs for garnish
Directions:
Dissolve organic sugar with cup of hot water. Once dissolved add mixture to the one gallon of water and 2 cups lemon juice. Stir and add sliced lemon and strawberries. Pour in glass with ice and garnish with mint! For the 4th of July we added blueberries to the ice cubes and it goes great with the red strawberries.
Can we say REFRESHING! A great treat to beat the heat on a HOT summer day!

This looks amazing! I am trying to cut the sodas out of my diet but get bored with water. I am so going to make this!
Thanks Aimee! I've cut sodas out of my diet going on 2 years now! Before that I wasn't a big water drinker and would drink alternatives like this lemonade recipe. :) I now make flavored water at home and it feels like a treat! I plan on sharing on how I do that in a future post! :) Thanks for stopping by and good luck with cutting the sodas out! :)

I love strawberry lemonade. What an easy, refreshing drink. Thanks so much for sharing at the All Star Block Party.
Thanks Holly!
I like your photos and this recipe sounds like a winner for my taste buds!
Thanks Cami! It is a winner in our home! :)
This looks so good too!! I love your recipes and how "clean" they are. We have been working on cutting out the processed foods and it is a hard transition but it's worth it!
It is super good and hits the taste buds perfectly! Thanks we try to eat clean and def. try to cut out processed foods in our home as much as possible. Of course we do enjoy a treat here and there...but once you cut a lot out you hardly ever crave most of the junk you may have allowed in your diet once before. :) It is a hard transition but once you have done it for a while it gets easier...but like I said we still have the occasional goodie and the not so good for you snack or treat. Moderation is key :)
