Hull the strawberries and add them to a blender with the granulated sugar and 1 cup of water.
Blend the mixture until smooth and strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove any pulp or seeds.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and the remaining 1 cup of water to the pitcher. Stir well to combine.
Pour in the vodka (or your preferred spirit) and mix thoroughly.
Place a few ice cubes in each serving glass and pour the spiked strawberry lemonade over the ice.
Optional: Top each glass with a splash of sparkling water for a fizzy touch.
Garnish each glass with a lemon slice and a fresh whole strawberry on the rim.
Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly!
