Homemade Strawberry Lemonade Blast


I wanted to share with you this recipe I came up with when I wasn't sure what to drink. I was so thirsty but not for water and of course I didn't want to head for the soda. So I decided to make a quick refreshing drink made with only four items.


What you'll need...


  • 2 bottles of water
  • 1 Lemon
  • Five strawberries, fresh or frozen.
  • Sugar (if you feel you need a bit)



First you start out pouring both bottles in your cup or mason jar. Don't fill it up too much just enough to add sugar later.


Now after we pour the water, you squeeze the lemon in. If the seeds fall in that's okay, just get a tight nit strainer and strain it out. After you have squeezed the lemon, in a blender or food processor  put the strawberries with a bit of the lemon water you made and process away.Until it's a bit smooth and chunky at the same time.

Then just mix into the glass and add a bit of sugar or stevia if needed.


Now Enjoy!! your homemade strawberry lemonade blast!! 


I made my family quite a few that we can save for during the week. 


Enjoy! :)

Easy As 1,2,3 Watermelon Juice


This a very easy juice to make, since it only needed one ingredient which is watermelon. I made sure to purchase a watermelon with seeds. I personally prefer the ones with the seeds and then cut it in half and then right down the middle. And yes you can just eat the watermelon since it is 90% water but it is pretty cool to make the juice.
After cutting up the watermelon, just went ahead and made smaller cuts and cut off the grind. Some leave the grind on I choose not to, but it is a personal choice.

Once all the pieces were cut up, I went ahead and put them all in the (Ninja Blender) any blender will do for this juice, since this melon is so soft to mash up.


As the watermelon gets blended all together don't worry abut the seeds they will either stay whole or some may break up, no worries you will be able to just strain them all out and keep the watermelon juice smooth.
Here you can see some of the watermelon seeds floating at the top as juice starts to drain slowly, I plan to make a sort of icy from the pulp don't like to waste anything. When I make this recipe I will post it soon.

Here you go to mason jars of pure watermelon juice, they will keep for abut 3 days no longer. because it has no preservatives. So drink a nice cold tall glass of watermelon juice this summer and have fun.
