Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, add the strawberry and ½ cup of water; blend or purée until completely smooth, then transfer the mixture into a pitcher. (For pulp-free: pass the mixture through a fine sieve, if desired).
- Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice, remaining water, and sugar to the pitcher and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Taste and add more sugar if necessary.
- Chill the strawberry lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving, or serve immediately over ice.
Notes
How to Store
Store any leftover lemonade in a covered pitcher or bottle for up to 2 days. Stir the lemonade well before serving, as the ingredients may settle over time.
Make-Ahead
You can prepare the puree and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Cover it with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. Mix it according to the recipe instructions and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Cover the pitcher or bottle with a lid or plastic wrap to prevent the lemonade from absorbing any flavors or odors from the fridge. When ready, combine the strawberry puree and lemonade in a pitcher and stir well. You can also add ice cubes and garnishes such as lemon wedges and fresh strawberries at this time.
Overall, preparing sugar-free strawberry lemonade can save you time and make serving easier when ready. Just store the strawberry puree and lemonade separately and combine them before serving for the best flavor.
