fresh strawberry mango lemonade
Sweet and refreshing, it's giving dreams of spring.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup mango chunks (about 2 medium mangoes)
- 1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 10-12 large lemons)
- 7-8 cups water
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, bring to a simmer the strawberries, sugar, and 1 cup of water. Cook gently, stirring and mashing the berries occasionally, about 10-15 minutes until the berries are greatly reduced. Strain the solids through a fine mesh sieve into a jar or measuring glass.
- Toss the cubed mango into a food processor and blitz until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a large drink pitcher, stir together the strawberry syrup, mango puree, lemon juice, and water. Cover and chill at least one hour, but preferably overnight.
- Serve with fresh strawberry slices, basil, and/or mint leaves!
