This solidified strawberry lemonade is certain to chill you this late spring!
It's so natural to make, loaded with crisp strawberries and brilliant, tart lemons. Not very acrid or excessively sweet, simply flawless!
Transform it into a reviving summer mixed drink substituting a portion of the water with your decision of liquor: vodka, tequila, rum or even white wine. In any case, even without liquor it's as yet heavenly!
My better half and I adored this solidified strawberry lemonade, it was gone in a matter of seconds! It's practically difficult to stop at only one glass. So in the event that you have companions coming over, simply twofold or triple the formula.
