Orange Starwberry Smoothie

10 Frozen Strawberries

2 fresh oranges peeled

1/2 cup milk
ice amount to thicken to preference

Add all ingredients into your blender and blenderize until desired consistency serve in chilled glass.

Lemonade / Strawberry Lemonade

Lemonade

1 cup lemon juice
1 cup sugar
2 quarts water

Fresh Lemonade

3 to 5 lemons washed and sliced
1 cup sugar
2 quarts water

Put sugar into pitcher and add enough water to stir to start disolving sugar. Add lemon slices and stir well. Add the remaining water. I have the Pampered chef pitcher and I love that because you can use the built in stirrer to help smash the lemon slices. This is actually better after it has been allowed to sit in the refridgerator for a few hours to enhance the lemon flavor.

To change to strawberry lemonade add:

10 pureed strawberries
5 tbsp lemon juice
1 1bsp sugar

Put strawberries in the blender with lemon juice and sugar and blend until desired consistency. Scoop into small muffin tins and freeze until solid. Add like ice cubes into sprite, lemonade, or other drink.
