Strawberry Limeade

Rebecca Lindamood
Sweet strawberries pureed into homemade limeade and chilled make the ultimate refreshing summer beverage.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ripe strawberries washed, hulled and quartered
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup fresh lime juice
  • up to 6 cups cold water

Optional garnish:

  • additional lime slices and strawberries

Instructions
 

  • Add the strawberries, sugar and lime juice to the pitcher of your blender.
  • Blend until completely smooth.
  • Add 4 cups of cold water and pulse just 3 times to combine.
  • Taste, add more water to adjust and pulse, if desired.
  • Put the lid on the pitcher and put the pitcher into the refrigerator (or transfer into a jar with a tight fitting lid) for an hour before serving.
  • Pour into tall glasses (*see notes), with or without ice, and garnish the rim of the glass with additional lime slices and strawberries, if desired.
  • Serve with a straw.

Notes

*If you prefer a smooth, pulp-free limeade, you can pour it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a jar or pitcher with a tight fitting lid. I personally love pulp, so I leave it!
