Notes
- I love unfiltered lemonade (kind of like orange juice with pulp). After storing in the fridge, you’ll need to stir strawberry lemonade before serving since the pulp/seeds settle.
- 1/3 cup light agave will yield a moderately sweet strawberry lemonade. For sweet-tart lemonade, use ¼ cup light agave. For very sweet lemonade, use ½ cup light agave. Sweetness also depends on the sweetness of your strawberries!
- If time allows, chill before serving.
- This recipe yields roughly 6 cups of unstrained lemonade or 3-4 cups of strained lemonade.
