What is Strawberry Lemonade?  If we asked the restaurant where we had lunch last weekend, they would tell us it’s lemonade with three pumps of artificially flavored strawberry syrup.  Ugh.  After watching my son slurp down this horrible concoction, I knew I couldn’t let that be his lasting memory of Strawberry Lemonade.  I needed to give him a fresh alternative.

When we got home, I got to work with my kids in the kitchen.  We pulled a basket of strawberries from the fridge, picked some lemons from the tree in the backyard and started mixing.  This is not your average pump-of-strawberry-syrup Strawberry Lemonade.  This thirst quenching treat is chock full of organic strawberries and fresh squeezed lemonade.
