If Lemonade mixture is too thin for your liking add more ice, if you would like it thinner add more lemonade.

For an extra kick you can add a splash of Strawberry Vodka to each each glass before pouring in your Lemonade mixture.

You can also garnish each drink with a lemon wedge.

If you have any leftover in the blender you can easily store it in the freezer for an hour or so without it freezing solid. If it does get too hard just allow it to sit for 20-30 minutes or until slushy before serving. Since my whole blender doesn’t fit into my freezer, I like to pour it into a ziploc bag and store it that way.

I used a Strawberry Purée I found at the grocery store, but you can also use Non-Alcoholic Strawberry Daiquiri or Strawberry Margarita Mix because it’s very thick like the purée, easy to find at grocery or liquor stores, and will work perfectly! Or you can make your own purée by placing strawberries in the food processor and blending until smooth, add a ½ Tsp of honey or sugar for sweetener to balance out the sourness of the berry if desired.
