Awesome recipes keep them going
Thank you!
This strawberry- lemonade recipe is wonderful!
Ya’ll need to have a recipe book people will really buy your book.
I made this for myself this Mom’s Day. It tasted more strawberry than lemony but that’s easily remedied by adding more lemon juice. It was so refreshing and I was drinking so much that by the end of the day, I made a 2nd batch. I love your recipes. I print them but I add the Internet address because I need the visual of you making the dishes. Thank you, wonderful woman!
Very tasty
Girl yes! I loved it. Next time I will strain it into my families glasses but it was simple and refreshing. I had a bag of whole frozen strawberries. I defrosted them and it worked fine with an imersion blender. Loved that I had everything on hand and simple syrip is a life saver when making drinks! Keep up the great work!
Hi Rosie. I just love this Strawberry Lemonade. It is bright and refreshing. I used fresh strawberries and soaked them in a bowl with some sugar over them, just to get more juice out of my strawberries. I used that included with the simple syrup. I did strain some through a fine mesh strainer. But this recipe is the BOMB girl. Love your recipes.
Omg great accompaniment to any meal!
I’m definitely going to try this recipe.. this strawberry lemonade looks refreshing.. thanks
I have a question, Whenever I make lemonade, and add some slices of lemon, it always ends up being bitter, what can I do?
Hi Amy, leave the slices our, andjust use the juice. The peel is probably too strong for you.
