Ingredients

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)

3/4 cup granulated sugar

5 cups cold sparkling water

Lemon slices and whole strawberries for garnish

Fresh mint leaves (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Strawberry Puree: In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries and 1/4 cup of sugar. Blend until smooth. If you prefer a smoother texture, strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds. Set aside.

Make the Lemon Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of sugar with 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves. Allow to cool slightly before mixing with the lemon juice in a large pitcher.

Combine Ingredients: Add the strawberry puree to the pitcher with the lemon mixture. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

Add Sparkle: Just before serving, slowly stir in the cold sparkling water to retain its fizz.

Garnish: Serve the Strawberry Lemonade over ice, garnished with fresh lemon slices, whole strawberries, and mint leaves if desired.

Enjoy: Sip and savor the refreshing taste of summer with every fizzy glass!
