This recipe for classic strawberry lemonade is easy to remember and simple to scale, because it calls for each ingredient in even parts.
Helpful hints:
The number of strawberries can be adjusted to taste, or you can even substitute them with other fruit like peaches or blackberries.
Try to use fresh lemons if you can! lemons that are past their prime may become bitter.
The leftover lemon rinds can be zested and used to make muffins or lemon pepper. Or you can run the whole rinds through the garbage disposal to make your kitchen smell lemony fresh.
