You guys have requested I do non-alcoholic drink recipes, so I'm launching a miniseries with beautiful, fruity, colorful drinks, none involving alcohol so kids and adults can both enjoy! This Strawberry Limeade has fresh cut strawberries, fresh lime juice, and a touch of mint for extra refreshing crispness. It has the perfect amount of sweetness with a punch of citrus. Great drink for summer!
Lime juice | 1/2 Cup (8 tbs) | |
Sugar | 1/3 Cup (5.33 tbs) | |
Water | 1/3 Cup (5.33 tbs) | |
Sliced strawberries | 1/2 Pound | |
Mint leaves | 20 |
Making
To make the simple syrup, combine sugar and water in a saucepan.
Cook over medium high heat for 5-10 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid is clear.
In a large mason jar or a pitcher, combine lime juice, simple syrup, strawberries, mint, and water.
Let sit in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. Serve and enjoy!
