Strawberry Lemonade

Last weekend, my friend, Megan, made this delicious, refreshing beverage at a BBQ. It was SO GOOD! Give it a try!

Makes 8 servings

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups lemon juice (about 8-10 lemons)

8 cups water

3/4  - 1 1/4 cup raw honey (depending on how sweet you like your lemonade, you can also use Stevia if you prefer it)

1 pint strawberries, washed and stems removed

- Throw everything in the blender then strain. That's it!

- Serve chilled or over crushed ice (or both!)

If you can manage not to drink it all,  freeze this yummy lemonade into popsicles. What a healthy and perfect hot Summer day treat!
