Frequently asked questions – FAQ
Can I use fresh or frozen strawberries for this recipe?

Can I make frozen strawberry lemonade ahead of time and store it?

Delicious! For the lemonade portion I used about 2T of fresh lemon juice, 2T of simple syrup, and added water to taste to get the 1 cup of lemonade. It came out great. Very refreshing.
