The strawberry lemonade is delicious in hot weather. Refreshing, slightly sweet with fresh fruit.
It consists of two separate drinks which you can mix but could drink separately. Then you would have to dilute the strawberry syrup with a little water or could opt for the refreshing lemonade. Anything is possible, but it sure is fun to make. This drink will surprise you!
💭 Top tips

- This is a delicious lemonade with strawberries, but is equally tasty when made with blackberries, raspberries, red currants (you name it).
