Strawberry Lemonade


What is summer without lemonade?? There’s just something about a cold glass of lemonade that makes a hot day better. We like to switch it up and add something to the lemonade. This time we tried strawberries and it was wonderful! Plus – homemade lemonade is much healthier than the powdered stuff and still easy to make.

4 lemons
½ cup stevia powder (or sugar or other sweetener)
4 strawberries
1.5 quarts of water
ice cubes
  • Fill a two quart pitcher half full with ice cubes. Add in the 1.5 quarts of water. Juice the lemons and add the juice into the water. (I cut each lemon in half and juiced by hand but you could also use an electric juicer)
  • Cut slices of lemon rind and add to pitcher. Cut the strawberries into quarters and add to pitcher.
  • Slowly stir in stevia or other sweetener. Refrigerate for a couple of hours to let the flavors come together. Refrigerate any leftovers.
