Strawberry Lemonade

Rinse and slice 1 lb of fresh strawberries, set aside some for garnish. Place the rest in a blender or food processor with 3 tablespoons of sugar. Puree until smooth.
Pour the strawberry puree into a pitcher, or you can divide it among your serving glasses. These would look really cute served in mason jars with a lemon and strawberry garnish and a paper straw.

Now you can add your lemonade to the puree. I used the Simply Lemonade that is not from concentrate instead of making homemade lemonade. However, you could always make homemade lemonade, you can find a recipe here.
Stir, and garnish with some lemon and strawberry slices. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Pour over ice and enjoy!

Mason Jars

Lots of mason jars to put to use after Carley and Matt's wedding. I started putting them to use last night to hold some lemonade. I garnished the drinks with lemon slices and mint leaves. A simple summer drink, but the jars and straws make it more fun! Planning to add some wire to others to hang in the trees out back with candles.
