Super Easy Homemade Strawberry Lemonade

Prep Time 10 minutes
Strawberry Syrup 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 8 , or so
Course: Drinks, Mocktail

Ingredients
  

Lemonade
  • ¾-1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 8 cups water
Strawberry Syrup
  • 2 cups strawberries (I like to use frozen)
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup sugar

Method
 

Strawberry Syrup
  1. Combine strawberries, water and sugar in a pot on the stove over medium heat.
  2. Bring to a slight simmer and keep an eye on the mixture, mixing lightly and pressing down on the strawberries as the sugar dissolves.
  3. Once the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture has thickened, your simple syrup is done!
  4. Strain the syrup into a resealable glass container leaving out the strawberries and let cool before using it for your lemonade. Save the strawberries you strain out to use as jam!
Homemade Lemonade
  1. Juice your lemons and strain out the pulp if you so wish.
  2. Pour the sugar into the lemon juice and mix every so often until it fully dissolves. It should take 5 minutes or so. The more you mix, the faster it will dissolve.
  3. Pour the lemon sugar mixture into water and stir to combine.
Strawberry Lemonade
  1. Pour approximately 1-2 tbsp of strawberry syrup into a glass with ice, then top with lemonade. Enjoy!
