Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound strawberry cut into halves & tops removed, the riper the better
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (I prefer superfine sugar because it dissolves easier)
  • lemon juice juice of 4 lemons, about 3/4 to 1 cup
  • water cold, still or sparkling (mixed for fizz
  • ice optional
  • strawberry slices for garnish, optional
  • lemon slices for garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Prep your strawberries. Add them to a blender, along with the sugar and enough water so it blends easily. Blend until smooth. 
  2. Juice your lemons.
  3. Using a sieve, strain the strawberry juice and lemon juice. To do this, I put the sieve over a bowl and use a spoon to move it along faster. I then transfer the pulp-free strawberry/lemon juice mix to a pitcher.
  4. Top up the pitcher with water. I suggest tasting it as you add water so it doesn't get too watery. Chill or serve right away. 
  5. If desired, add ice and fruit pieces just prior to serving.

Notes

  • Add vodka to make this drink alcoholic, or replace the water entirely with sparkling wine.
