Homemade Strawberry Lemonade is a delicious lemonade made with real lemon juice and strawberry juice you make in a blender. Serve it at a bbq, picnic or family gathering.
In a medium saucepan combine the granulated sugar and water. Bring to a gentle boil. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely.
Prepare the strawberry puree. Rinse and trim the strawberries. Sprinkle with sugar. Puree the sweetened strawberries with ½ cup water in a blender until smooth. Strain the pureed strawberries using a fine mesh strainer. Set aside.
Slice the lemons in half and squeeze the juice trough a fine mesh strainer placed over a bowl. Add ice, lemon slices, and sliced strawberries to a pitcher. Stir in the lemon juice, the strawberry puree and half the simple syrup.
