1
Prepare Strawberries
Wash and hull the strawberries. Cut them into halves for easier blending.
2
Make the Puree
In a blender, combine the halved strawberries. Blend until smooth. If desired, strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds.

3
Juice the Lemons
Roll the lemons on a countertop to soften them, then cut them in half and juice them into a measuring cup to yield about 1 cup of lemon juice.
4
Prepare Lemonade
In a pitcher, combine the lemon juice, water, and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or water if needed.

5
Prepare the Dragonfruit
Cut the dragonfruit in half lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon and chop it into small cubes.
6
Combine Ingredients
In a glass, add a few pieces of dragonfruit at the bottom, then pour in the house-made lemonade until the glass is about halfway full. Add a layer of strawberry puree on top.
7
Finish and Serve
Top with more dragonfruit and a few dollops of strawberry puree. Stir gently to combine slightly. Serve chilled with a straw.
