Description
This summer strawberry lemonade is a combo of fresh summer strawberries and honey balanced out with zingy lemon juice and zest. Need I say more – it’s the ultimate summer drink!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (460 ml) water*
- 2 cups (300 g) chopped fresh strawberries (about 15 strawberries)
- 1/2 cup (115 ml) lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1/3 cup (95 g) honey
- 2 lemons worth of zest
- 1/8 tsp kosher salt or celtic sea salt
Instructions
- Prep the strawberries. Make sure to thoroughly wash the strawberries before using.
- Blend the ingredients. Add all of the ingredients into a high-powered blender (add the honey last so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the blender) and turn on low. After 30 seconds, ramp the speed up to medium-high and continue blending for an additional 1 minute and 30 seconds – the lemonade will look super frothy.
- Strain and chill the lemonade. Place a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve over a large pitcher or bowl with a spout and pour in the strawberry lemonade. Strain the lemonade into the bowl, then pour the strained lemonade into a sealable bottle or jar. Chill the lemonade in the fridge for 1-2 hours until cold, or you can pour it over ice and serve immediately.
- Store the lemonade in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Notes
*Instead of using water, you can use coconut water for an extra refreshing and nutritious lemonade.
