Notes
Frozen strawberries can also be used in this recipe. It can sometimes cause the lemonade to be a bit more like a slushie. If you are using frozen strawberries and prefer it not to have any slushy pieces in your lemonade, simply let the strawberries thaw on the counter for about 20 minutes before blending.
