Instructions
Make sugar Syrup
In a sauce pan add equal quantity of water and sugar.
Bring it to a boil and simmer till all sugar is dissolved.
Stir occasionally to mix the sugar.
No string syrup is required for sugar syrup.
Once done, tyrn off heat and allow it to cool.
Once cooled to room temperature, transfer to a glass jar with lid.
Refrigerate for future use.
Make Strawberry Limeade
Clean and wash the berries nicely removing the crown and leaves.
Dice the strawberries into quarters.
Transfer to a blending jar and blend to a puree.
Now transfer the puree to a pitcher passing through a sieve.
This will remove the chunky parts away.
Now add water, lime juice and sugar syrup as per the required sweetness.
On approximately, I add 2.5 - 3 tbsp of sugar syrup to 1 glass of drink.
Now add mint leaves and ice cubes to the serving glass and pour the strawberry drink to it.
Garnish with lime slices or strawberry slices and serve them chilled.
