Sinfully Delicious Strawberry Lemonade

My son likes to get dirty. I put this characteristic to good use this year in the back yard when I received my special order from Seeds of Change : mature organic strawberry plants. We planted several pots of strawberries this spring, and have been harvesting the rewards, much to our delight. But what to do with all those berries? Rather than spend time in my hot kitchen, I decided to whip up a chilled concoction that would serve the yummy harvest without all the sweating and baking. We've been drinking these strawberry lemonades for days now, and I'm happy to report that the benefits to your skin will be as good as the benefits to your taste buds! Great vitamin C, natural fruit acids, and lots of enzymes give this virgin-cocktail skin-replenishing plant power.Here's the basic recipe:1 pint strawberries, stems removed1/2 cup raw agave nectar3 cups water1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juiceicePuree the strawberries in a blender or food processor until smooth. Pass the pureed strawberries through a fine meshed strainer or sieve to remove the seeds and set aside. Combine the agave and water in a pitcher, and stir well. Add the lemon juice and strawberry puree to the mixture and stir well to combine. Chill. Serve in ice-filled glasses.Yield: 1 1/2 Quarts
