- To the pitcher with the strained fruit puree, add 1/2 cup of lemon juice and 4 cups of spring water.
- Stir Well:
- Stir the mixture well until everything is thoroughly combined.
- Chill:

- Serve:
- Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the pink lemonade over the ice.
- Enjoy:
- Serve the refreshing pink lemonade to the kids and watch them enjoy this fruity delight!
Tips:
- For a sweeter lemonade, you can add a little honey or agave syrup to taste.
- Garnish each glass with a strawberry or pineapple wedge for an extra fun touch.
- You can also freeze some of the pink lemonade into ice cube trays and use them instead of regular ice cubes to prevent dilution.
- Encourage the kids to get involved in the preparation process by helping to blend the fruits and stir the lemonade. It can be a fun and educational activity!
