Strawberry Limeade

DifficultyBeginner

I created this recipe during our recent crippling heat wave. All we wanted to eat was fruit and drink cold beverages. I had fresh local strawberries on hand as well as limes so this refreshing drink was born. We even enjoyed this for breakfast, making the perfect addition to your summer brunch table. You can switch out the limes fo lemons to make lemonade.
