This Strawberry Lime Refresher is a bright, refreshing summer drink made with fresh strawberries, tangy lime juice, cold water, and simple sweetness. Blending the berries first creates a smooth, fruity base, while adjusting the sugar to the strawberries’ ripeness gives home cooks reliable sweet-tart flavor.
