Minty Strawberry Lemonade Recipe! Aka ‘Smoothie-ade’

This recipe I threw together last night after getting mint and strawberries in my farm box. I was inspired by the recipe I found here, but I wanted less added sugars, so I ended up making a lot of alterations and it was delicious! My 5 year old loved it too. 🙂
