Hot PINK Lemonade Recipe- Natural Pink!
Ready to create a refreshing beverage that’s not only delicious but also eye-catching? Here’s what you’ll need to whip up a batch of this delightful pink lemonade.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 6-8 lemons)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 4 cups water (divided)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed (for natural pink color)
- Ice cubes
- Fresh lemon slices and mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
- Start by squeezing the juice from your fresh lemons until you have about one cup. Strain the juice to remove any seeds and pulp if desired.
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and the granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. This creates a simple syrup that will blend nicely with your lemonade.
- In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and the simple syrup. Add the remaining 3 cups of water and stir well.
- Next, take your fresh strawberries and puree them in a blender until smooth. You can add a little water if needed to help blend. Once pureed, add this to your lemonade mixture, stirring gently to combine.
- Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
- When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled lemonade over. Garnish each glass with fresh lemon slices and mint leaves for a pop of color and extra flavor.
This Hot PINK Lemonade is not only refreshing; it’s also a fantastic way to use up those juicy strawberries while creating a vibrant drink that’s sure to catch everyone’s eye.
