Hey, Reader!
With a balance of sweet and sour notes, lemonade provides a perfect base for refreshing summer sippers.
Gone is the sickly sweet powder-based mixture that was a staple at the picnics of my youth (and probably yours too). When you make lemonade at home, you use simple ingredients that taste amazing, so you can feel good about what you are drinking. Add in a complimentary booze and you've got a cocktail made for cookouts, happy hour and more.
Here are the top lemonade cocktail recipes you need this summer:
cocktail pouches
These cocktail pouches are the perfect fun addition to long weekend celebrations, pool parties, you name it! Use a lemonade base and your favorite booze for a quick cocktail that's easy to customize.
lynchburg lemonade
While there may not be any actual lemonade in this cocktail, lime juice, orange liqueur, lemon-lime soda and Jack Daniel’s create a totally crushable lemonade-like drink you'll love.
summer shandy
It's really hard to beat a drink that only needs two ingredients. Beer and lemonade come together in a perfectly bubbly, balanced drink that's basically a twist on an Arnold Palmer.
vodka lemonade
Vodka lemonade is the ultimate summer refresher. This easy, two-ingredient drink is perfectly balanced between sweet-and-sour lemon and a punch of vodka. A flavored vodka can also transform into a floral treat for your senses!
electric lemonade
This electric lemonade cocktail is essentially an adult version of two childhood favorites, all wrapped up in one tasty drink — lemonade and blue Kool-Aid. It's perfect for enjoying poolside!
My biggest tip? Don't skip the fresh-squeezed lemon juice. It will give you much better flavor than the store bought stuff!
Cheers!
