01*Easier method: If you’re in a rush, use frozen lemonade (Minute Maid brand is the best) to make the lemonade and just add the strawberries.
02Otherwise . . . Add the sugar and water to a saucepan and heat it to dissolve the sugar – do this without stirring. Once the sugar appears dissolved, then swirl to mix. Remove from heat once sugar crystals are completely dissolved (if you’re not sure, then let it simmer for another minute). Pour into a large pitcher.
03Pulse the strawberries in the blender, leaving chunks. Add the lemon juice and strawberries to the large pitcher with the simple syrup. Dilute with 4 cups of cold water (or to taste).
04Let the whole mixture sit in the fridge for several hours or overnight. You can serve it immediately, but trust me, it tastes a lot better after the strawberries are saturated in the mixture and the flavors have gotten happy together.
