Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2–4 tbsp honey, maple syrup, or sugar (to taste)
  • Optional: 1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Add strawberries, lemon juice, water, sweetener, and optional lemon zest to a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve for a smoother texture, if desired.

Notes

  • Use very ripe strawberries for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Swap honey for maple syrup or sugar to make it vegan-friendly.
  • Swirl in coconut milk for a creamy variation or add chopped fruit for texture.
  • Layer with plain lemonade for a two-tone look.
  • Store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months.
