Strawberry Basil Lemonade

For this recipe you will need the following INGREDIENT

• 4 Strawberries – Remember to use fresh ones only! Let’s start off this season in a healthy way! You don’t need to chop these because we will be grinding them later anyways.
• 4 tbsp sugar- This may seem like a lot (not if you are me) but since we are making 3 glasses this is actually not that bad.
• 1 lemon- We are going to be using this for 2 different purposes, zest and juice.
• 2 cups water – We used this amount for 3 medium sized glasses.
• 4-5 basil leaves- We plucked out fresh ones from our garden to give the drink a natural flavor! You may use the ones from market as well.

Once you have prepped all of the ingredients, follow these steps:

• Boil water and add sugar in it and wait for the sugar to melt. Once it does, turn off the stove and wait for the water to become warm.
• While we are waiting for it to become warm, let’s prep our lemon zest and lemon juice. Use half of the lemon for zest and the other half for juice.
• Once the water cools down, add both, the lemon juice and zest into it and stir gently.
• Now grind your strawberries to make it a puree and add it in the drink and mix well.

Now garnish your drink with some basil and add some ice cubes… your drink is ready to be served!
