Fresh strawberry lemonade

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Drinks
Forget shop-bought soft drinks! This strawberry lemonade captures the true taste of fresh fruit in a glass. The secret lies in making a 'strawberry syrup': instead of just throwing the fruit into water, we purée it, so every drop of water takes on the strawberry's flavour and colour. A true summer classic that is not only thirst-quenching but also a table centrepiece.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Blender
  • Fine mesh sieve
  • Large jug
  • Spoon

Instructions

1 ✓

Wash and hull the strawberries, then place them in the blender with the sugar and half of the lemon juice.

Tip: The sugar helps break down the strawberry cell walls, releasing more juice.
2 ✓

Blend until completely smooth, then pass through a sieve.

Tip: Although the seeds are healthy, the drink will be silkier and more elegant without them. (Texture).
3 ✓

Pour the strawberry purée into the jug, add the remaining lemon juice and the water/soda. Mix well.

Tip: If using soda water, only top up immediately before serving to prevent the bubbles from going flat.
4 ✓

Tear the mint leaves and drop them into the drink.

Tip: Tearing along the leaf veins releases the essential oils, giving a more intense scent.
5 ✓

Fill glasses with plenty of ice and garnish with a whole strawberry each.

Tip: You can dip the rim of the glass in lemon juice then granulated sugar (frosting) for a professional look.
