Strawberry Lemonade Recipe :))

I can't wait for summer so I already start collecting this cool recipes and can't wait to share with you all :))

2 cups lemon juice {fresh is best, but store bought taste great too}... 2.5 cups granulated sugar
2 cups fresh strawberries
12 cups water

Puree the 2 cups of strawberries. {it will measure approx 1 cup after being pureed} Ideally, its best to strain the strawberry puree through cheesecloth to remove the seeds, but I don’t mind the seeds so I skip this step. Mix together lemon juice and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in water and add strawberry puree. Mix well. Serve over ice and garnish with a slice of lemon or strawberry. {optional} Yields: 1 Gallon . So enjoy :)) I'll be back with more recipes ! loves .

WATER or COKE!

 

 

 

FYI- Found it on another page and thought I would share!

 

 

Very interesting indeed! Water or Coke? We all know that water is important but I’ve never seen it written down like this before.

2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.

3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 30%.

4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.
