In a small saucepan, add the strawberry slices and sugar. Turn to a medium heat and as the strawberries heat up, start to stir and mash the strawberries with a wooden spoon. Continue to do this until the strawberries are soft and have created a sauce. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.

To assemble the floats, place a large scoop of vanilla ice cream in the bottom of a glass and then top with a spoonful or two of the strawberry sauce. Repeat with another scoop of vanilla ice cream and more strawberry sauce.

Slowly pour the lemonade in the glass over the ice cream and strawberry sauce until the glass is full. Use a straw or spoon to mix together a bit.

Garnish with fresh lemons and strawberry slices and enjoy!
