To make the best-tasting CBD strawberry lemonade, we recommend picking high-quality ingredients. 

If you have a local fruit stand or farmers market, pick out a batch of freshly picked berries. Look for bright red organic strawberries with a healthy green cap. 

Pick out a few deep yellow lemons that are slightly firm. You want the juiciest lemons for making lemonade!

Determine what kind of sweetener you want to use. We used agave because it mixed in really well and complimented the strawberry flavor. You can substitute agave with granulated white sugar, honey, stevia, or simple syrup. Be sure to taste for sweetness, as some of these ingredients will be sweeter than others and aren’t always interchangeable in the measurement department.

Because Pure Balance hemp extract is oil soluble, it requires an emulsification step if you want to get it suspended in your beverage and help keep the oil from floating on top or sticking to the glass. This is in step 2 below.

Let’s get mixing! Here’s how to make the best texture, taste, and sweetness CBD Strawberry lemonade.

Ingredients

• • 1 overflowing cup of chopped strawberries
  • 3 cups of filtered water
  • ½ cup of agave nectar
  • 6 large juicy lemons or 1 cup of fresh lemon juice
  • 100mg of Pure Balance CBD Oil

How to Make

1. First, chop your strawberries and drop them into the blender with water. Blend up until liquified. Pour the strawberry mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher and set aside. This removes the small seeds for a smoother texture.
2. Next, juice the lemons and measure 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Combine the lemon juice, agave nectar, and 100mg of CBD oil (2x 1ml / 50mg droppers) in the blender. Blend for 20-30 seconds to emulsify the hemp extract oil.
3. Pour the strawberry mix back into the blender and mix everything together thoroughly.
4. Drop some ice into glasses and serve right away before settling occurs. If you save your lemonade in the fridge, it will need to be blended again before use to emulsify the CBD oil.

When making your lemonade add more agave for sweetness and to balance the tartness of the lemon or more strawberries for a richer strawberry flavor. If you want to leave the CBD oil out of the pitcher, just add your desired dose to your cup and blend up before you drink.
