Fresh Brewed Strawberry Lemonade Ingredients
Method
Fresh Brewed Strawberry Lemonade Directions
- 1
Prepare Strawberries
Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and hulls, then slice them into halves or quarters.
- 2
Make Strawberry Puree
In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries with half a cup of water. Blend until smooth to create a strawberry puree. If desired, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove the seeds for a smoother texture.
- 3
Juice the Lemons
Cut the fresh lemons in half and use a citrus juicer to extract the juice, ensuring you have one cup of fresh lemon juice. Make sure to remove any seeds.
- 4
Prepare the Sugar Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and one cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves completely. This will create a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let it cool.
