Ultimate Strawberry Lemonade
Ingredients
  • 12 fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 7 cups water, divided
  • 2 cups ice cubes
  • 1 cup lemon juice
Instructions
1
Combine the fresh strawberries with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar in a medium-sized bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated with the sweetener. Allow the strawberries to release their juices for 5 to 10 minutes, as they will become more flavorful.
2
In a separate small saucepan, heat up 1 cup of water until it reaches boiling point. Then, add the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar and stir constantly until it has fully dissolved. This should take about 5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat source and let it cool down to room temperature.
3
In a large pitcher, combine 6 cups of water, ice cubes, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and the cooled simple syrup. Stir everything together until it is well combined. Finally, add the sweetened strawberries to the pitcher and give it a gentle stir.
