Strawberry and Lemon Lime Icey

We have a large family so this recipe makes a lot! You can make a half recipe if you do not want a lot.

7 cups water
2 1/2 cups sugar
strawberries – 1 container fresh or frozen
3/4 cup juice of lemons
3/4 cup juice of limes

Mix the water and sugar in a pot and simmer.
Add the strawberries and continue to simmer.
When the strawberries have become soft use a potato masher to break them up and mix them in the liquid.
Add the lemon and lime juice and boil for 2 minutes.
Remove the pot from the burner and let cool.
Pour the liquid into containers and freeze.

This is a simple and very tasty treat on a nice warm day.
