Mrs. C Does Stuff

Strawberry lemonade has always been one of my favorite drinks.  I started whipping this version up to satisfy my craving for it in between visits to Chili's and California Pizza Kitchen.  Both restaurants have excellent versions of strawberry lemonade. Ingredients: 1 pint of fresh strawberries 4 cups of Simply Lemonade 1/2 cup sugar Trim the stems off the strawberries and wash them.  Throw them into the blender. Then add in the lemonade and sugar. Blend and you are done.  This will yield about four glasses.

I love these slushes!  Mr. C and I sometimes call them "smoothies", but we do not put any dairy products in them.  Strawberry Slush 2 cups of strawberries (can be frozen or fresh) 1/2 cup water 1 cup ice 1 tbsp honey 1/2 cup sugar (optional, depending on how sweet you want it to taste) Blend at a high speed until all ice is crushed.  Once ice is crushed, you have a lovely, smooth and tasty strawberry slush.  It is just that simple. Mr. C and I try to drink these slushes as much as possible.  Strawberries are known for being high in vitamin C, benefiting the immune system.  They can also help with inflammation.  So, drink up!  This is a great breakfast option.
