Old-Fashioned Pink Lemonade

Preparation

  Be sure an adult is nearby to help.

  On a cutting board, using a knife, cut off the green stems from the strawberries. Cut the strawberries in half.
  
• 4
  Set a fine-mesh sieve over a small bowl. Put the strawberry halves in the sieve and mash with the back of a small spoon, pushing the berries through the sieve. Pour the strained strawberries into the lemonade. Make sure to scrape the underside of the sieve, adding what comes through to the juice. Throw away anything left inside the sieve. Stir the lemonade until well blended and pink. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled.
