Notes
- ¹Fresh squeeze preferred, but bottled lemon juice will also work
- ²I like my strawberry lemonade to be nice and smooth and I don’t like pulpy, seed-y bits of strawberry in my lemonade, which is why I use the strainer. If you don’t mind the texture, feel free to skip the straining and leave this in your lemonade!
- Fine mesh strainer
- Blender
