Ingredients
  

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)

1 cup granulated sugar (or adjust to taste)

4 cups cold water

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for sweetening whipped cream)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Ice cubes (for serving)

Lemon slices and strawberry slices (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Make the Lemonade Base: In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves.

    Add Water: Pour in the cold water and mix well. Taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if desired. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the whipped cream.

      Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed. Once it starts to thicken, add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue beating until soft peaks form.

        Blend Strawberries: In a blender, puree the sliced strawberries until smooth. You can strain for a smoother texture if desired, but this is optional.

          Combine: Gently fold the strawberry puree into the whipped cream until it’s well combined, creating a lovely pink hue.

            Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemonade to about three-quarters full. Top generously with the whipped pink cream.

              Garnish: Add lemon slices and a few slices of strawberries on top for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing treat!
