Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 heaping cup sliced ripe strawberries, hulled and halved (organic when possible)
  • 3 cups filtered water
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup agave* (we used the lesser amount for a more tart lemonade // or sub liquid monk fruit extract or liquid stevia to taste)
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice (~6-8 large, juicy lemons as recipe is written)

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients (starting with the lesser amount of agave) to a high-speed blender and blend on medium-high until smooth — about 30 seconds. Taste and adjust as needed, adding more agave for sweetness and to balance the lemon, lemon juice for tartness, or strawberries for more strawberry flavor.
  2. Optionally, for a smoother lemonade and to remove strawberry seeds, you can strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer before serving. We didn’t find this step necessary.
  3. Option to chill the lemonade by transferring it to a large jar and placing in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. Serve immediately. You can also serve over ice, though it will dilute the flavor a bit. Serve this lemonade on its own or as a mixer with tequila, gin, or vodka.
  4. Lemonade will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator up to 5 days, or freeze in popsicle molds for a sweet, cold treat! Can also be frozen into ice cubes and added to summer beverages.

Notes

  • *We tested agave, honey, coconut sugar, and maple syrup. Agave was our favorite. Honey stuck to the bottom of the blender, which made blending a little more finicky, however it was very floral and delicious. The maple syrup gave it a maple strawberry flavor — not something we preferred, but it would be nice with bourbon. The coconut sugar was a little too flavor specific and tasted like brown sugar.*The easy method used in this recipe creates a frothy layer at the top, which we enjoyed. But if the froth might bother you, you can blend the strawberries, agave, and 1 cup of water, then add that to a jar with the lemon juice and remaining water.*Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated with the lesser amount of agave.
