Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar or sugar alternative I used Natvia
  • 1 cup water + 3 cups sparkling mineral water
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and cut in half
  • 1 cup about 5-8 depending on size fresh Lemon juice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small sauce pan combine 1 cup of the sweetener, 1 cup of water and strawberries. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the strawberries begin to release its juices. Remove from heat and cool.
  2. Once cool put in a blender and process until smooth. Add lemon juice to combine with strawberries. Strain (a couple of times) to remove seeds (optional), and transfer to a pitcher.
  3. Stir in remaining 3 cups of water. Fill cups with ice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Note 1 -This can be made with sparkling water or still water. Still water can be kept in the refrigerator, but if you use sparkling water, serve right away. Note 2 - For an alcoholic beverage, make the base (through step 3) and individually add a teaspoon of the strawberry/lemonade mixture to a glass of champagne.
