Ingredients

Honey Simple Syrup

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup honey

Strawberry Puree

1 lb. fresh strawberries
1 cup water

Other

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice about 4-6 large lemons
1.5 cups water
8 oz. vodka 1 cup vodka

Instructions

First, make simple syrup by placing honey and water into a small saucepan.
Bring to a boil and then let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring consistently.
When syrup has reduced, remove from heat, pour into a jar, and place in the fridge to cool for later.
Next, create strawberry puree. Place strawberries and water into a high-speed blender and blend on high until smooth. Pour over a sieve and use a spoon to press the puree through the holes separating the seeds from the puree. Set aside.
Next, juice lemons with a juicer until you've reached about 1 cup. Depending on how juicy your lemons are, you'll use about 4-6 lemons.
Pour lemon juice, additional water, strawberry puree, and vodka into a large pitcher and mix well. Add in honey simple syrup and mix again until combined.
Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until chilled. Serve over ice.

Tips & Notes

Storage: Store this strawberry vodka lemonade in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. Because we use fresh strawberry puree and fresh-squeezed lemons, this lemonade will not keep as long as store bought pasteurized drinks do.
