Homemade Strawberry Limeade



Have any of you been to Red Robin and had their Freckled Lemonade? Well if you have, you probably know it's SO delicious! If you haven't, no big deal because you can make one similar to it at home!  And here's how!

The ingredients you will need:
1 pint of coconut water or just plain ol' water
6-8 strawberries
1 lime
3-4 Truvia packets

Note: you can add more or less of any of these ingredient according to your taste. I like things pretty sweet!

What you will need to do:
1. Crush the strawberries. I used a Ziploc bag and just crushed them with my hand. The Ziploc bag is pretty necessary so your kitchen doesn't turn out looking like a strawberry massacre. Strawberries are pretty soft so they can be easily crushed. It also serves as a stress reliever!

2. Put the crushed strawberries into your jar (or whatever you are using).

3. Squeeze one whole lime into the jar.

4. Add one pint of water.

5. Add sugar, and enjoy!

I know that this weather calls for hot chocolate and such, but I can't help adding a little summer vibe to these cool days.
