Place the sugar and two cups of the water into a medium sized pot. Put over high heat stirring occasionally until sugar is melted and liquid is clear. Take off the heat and let cool completely.
Place strawberries in a blender, blend until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh colander. Pour this along with the lemon juice, sugar water, and remaining water into a large pitcher or bowl. Mix to combine.
Pour desired amount into ice cube molds. Two drinks use about 1 1/2 ice cube trays. Place in freezer and allow to freeze completely. I do this overnight.
Strawberry Limoncello Slush (makes 2)
Place 1/2 cup of limoncello into a blender. Add 3 cups of the ice cubes to blender. Blend until smooth.
Top with 1/4 cup of the sparkling wine in each glass. Stir to combine.
Directions to serve over ice
Make strawberry lemonade as directed. You can still freeze some to use as ice cubes if desired, this will help to not water down your drink!
Mix 2 cups of the strawberry lemonade with the limoncello. Pour over ice. Add 1/4 cup of the sparkling wine to each glass. Stir to combine.
