Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Slice half of the strawberries, then set aside for now.
  2. Add the sugar and 2 cup water to a medium saucepan. Heat over medium until the sugar dissolves, then add 1 cup of blueberries and the sliced strawberries. Bring the mix to a boil and cook until the fruit begins to break down, about 5 to 10 minutes.
  3. Strain the mix to remove solids, and let cool.
  4. Meanwhile, cut the remaining strawberries in half, leaving some whole for garnish. Slice the apples into thick rings, then cut with a cookie cutter into star shapes. Dip these in the lemon juice as needed to prevent browning.
  5. In a large pitcher, whisk together the cooled syrup with the lemon juice, water, apples, blueberries (leave a small handful out for garnish), and halved strawberries.
  6. If desired, top with ice to chill the rest of the way, otherwise refrigerate.
