For the lemon base: Grate the zest from three lemons and extract their juice using a lemon squeezer or your hands.
Mix the zest and sugar together, squeezing the zest to release its juice into the sugar. Combine this mixture with the lemon juice.
For the strawberry base: In a pan, combine sugar, strawberries, and 1/3 cup of water.
Simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until the strawberries break down and thicken into a syrup. Strain out the seeds and let the mixture cool.
Once cooled, blend the strawberry base with the lemon base and sparkling water. Serve over ice cubes and enjoy.
