Today’s This Week’s Cravings theme is Lemon and Limeades, Lemon and Limeade Flavor and SUMMER DRINKS. And I’m sharing a Frugal Strawberry Limeade recipe I adapted from Homemade Fresh Limeade and an idea in Don’t Compost it, Cook It. I’m using strawberry tops and hulls (the “waste” of the strawberries, minus the green leaves), but you could also use about a cup of sliced strawberries if you prefer.

Ingredients
Instructions
Blend strawberries and lime wedges with a bit of water using your blender or immersion blender.
Strain out chunky parts by running the puree through a mesh strainer into your pitcher.
Add sweetener and stir until dissolved (heat if necessary). Fill remainder of pitcher with ice cubes and cold water and stir.
Serve with lime wedges and strawberries on glass rims, if desired.
