Thursday's Thirst Quencher: Strawberry Lemonade

Today's Thirst Quencher is strawberry lemonade.  It is a perfect drink to wow unexpected guests.  It's quick, easy, and refreshing!






aTypical Day: Thursday's Thirst Quencher: Strawberry Lemonade
Ingredients:
1 pint strawberries
Sugar
3-4 lemons
Seltzer water
Makes at least 2 glasses


Puree strawberries and 2 teaspons of sugar in a blender.  Take two glasses and spoon 3 tablespoons of the strawberry puree, 4 tablespoons of sugar, and approximately 5 tablespoons of lemon juice in each glass. Stir well. Although the mixture is very concentrated, taste to see if it has the desired sweet to tart ratio.  If needed stir in more sugar then add ice.  Top off the glass of seltzer water. 


Garnish the glass with a strawberry for a little extra flair. I forgot to add mine.  


Hope this helps keep you cool on this hot day!
