Instructions
- Puree strawberries along with 1/2 cup lemon juice until smooth.
- Use a sieve to strain out seeds and berry bits.
- Add remaining lemon juice and sugar and mix.
- Start with 4 cups of water and adjust to taste, adding up to six cups of water total.
- Depending on the ripeness of the strawberries and your personal sweetness preference you may want more or less water. I prefer a slightly less sweet taste so add the full six cups.
