Trying to eat healthier doesn't mean swearing off all drinks besides water. While water is best most of the time, you can still enjoy a flavorful drink every once in a while. Try making your own naturally-sweetened strawberry lemonade at home for a healthier alternative to sugary drinks and sodas.

This strawberry lemonade is easy to make, and contains just a few ingredients. It's naturally sweetened with honey and strawberries, so you can feel good about drinking it. Make a big pitcher if you want to serve it at your summer barbecues and parties.

Ingredients

1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
1 1/2 cups water, divided
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

Preparation

In a small saucepan, heat strawberries, 1/2 cup of the water and honey over low heat until berries are softened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
Place berries (including liquid) in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Strain mixture into a container and refrigerate until cold.
In a small pitcher, combine strawberry puree, lemon juice, and remaining one cup of water. Serve over ice.
