Chef's Notes

The juice of each lemon slice will be extracted, leaving the rind fully intact. The Aer™ disc container will also muddle the strawberries and chill the drink, all at the same time. Use peak in season ingredients to make a refreshing lemonade. Make sure you are using the Aer Disc container for this recipe
