Strawberry Lemonade

Strawberry Lemonade

Makes 1.5 litres

Ingredients
1 litre water
175g white sugar
400g chopped strawberries
200ml freshly squeezed lemon juice (around 4 – 5 lemons)
Ice, to serve

Method
1. Tip the sugar and 1 litre of water into a saucepan over a medium heat, slowly heat your water whilst stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely.
2. Place the strawberries into a blender and blitz to a purée. You can strain this through a fine mesh sieve to remove any seeds, if you prefer. Tip the strawberry purée into a large jug with the sugar water and add in your lemon juice
– stir to combine.
3. Pour into glasses filled with ice and serve garnished with whole strawberries,
if you like.
