Strawberry Lemonade {thm fp}

Remember my post about lemonade?  Well I made a strawberry version earlier this week
for my kids and it turned out great!  They loved it and I loved it!  I made the recipe the same, just when I blended all the ingredients together I added about 5 frozen strawberries and a bit more sweetener.  It was delicious!  I can't wait for some hot summer days to sip on this outside :D

Everyone got a cup to start with and then I kept it in this pitcher in the fridge - I added a few strawberries in the fruit holder part, just to add more strawberry flavor without all the carbs :)

Homemade Lemonade GGMS {thm - fp}

This morning I made this delicious lemonade recipe!  It's nothing fancy, but it sure is tasty - and will be even better on a hot summer day!  Here are the instructions...

*Put 2 cups water in your blender and add 2 whole lemons (just peel the outer yellow off, but leave as much of the white as possible.)
*Blend until there are no more chunks
*Strain through a mesh strainer or cheesecloth.

*Pour back into blender and add ACV (a few tbsp), sweetener of your choice (I used a Truvia, stevia extract blend), ginger (I used the paste, but later found out there is added sugar in that!!  Will use powdered next time!)
*Blend again
*Taste and adjust flavor to your liking
*Pour into a pitcher and add 4 cups of water and stir.
*Enjoy!
