Strawberry Lemonade πŸ“ πŸ‹

This is a great tasting strawberry lemonade!  For this recipe, I used my own strawberries, which I picked, sweetened with sugar, and then froze them to use later.



Strawberry Lemonade πŸ“ πŸ‹

1 (12-oz.) can frozen lemonade concentrate

4 -1/2 cups of water

1 (10-oz.) pkg. frozen sweetened strawberries, partially thawed


1.)  In a large pitcher mix together, the lemonade concentrate and the water.

2.)  Stir in the strawberries, then pour the mixture into a blender, and purΓ©e until mixture is liquefied.

3.)  Strain the lemonade twice, to remove excess seeds from the strawberries.

4.)  Rinse the pitcher, so there aren't any seeds from the strawberries in it, then pour the strained strawberry lemonade back into the pitcher.

5.)  To serve, pour strawberry lemonade in glasses filled with ice.

6.)  Yields: 56 ounces of delicious strawberry flavored lemonade!

1.)  Mix together in a blender, the sugar, strawberries, and 2 cups of water.


2.)  Pour the strawberry mixture into a 2-quart pitcher, along with the remaining cup of water, and add the 2 packets of lemonade.  Stir mixture with a spoon.  (This lemonade has a consistency of being syrupy.)


3.)  Strain the lemonade twice, to remove excess seeds from the strawberries.

4.)  Rinse the pitcher, so there aren't any seeds from the strawberries in it, then pour the strained strawberry-lemonade back into the pitcher.
