Juice the lemons and transfer the juice into a large pitcher. Add the sugar and the water and stir to combine and dissolve the sugar. Add the strawberries and basil.

Summer is finally here! The sun is shining in beautiful NYC, and I can't wait to enjoy the weekend wandering aimlessly around the city. I also can't wait to head out to Long Island to enjoy the beach and some paddle boarding! xo
