With mercury hovering around 95deg F in Chicago, I badly needed a ice cold drink to beat the heat.. Sometimes we crave for food which are labor-intensive but lemonade be so easy, so refreshing and let's not forget that it's healthy too and so Instagram worthy! This is perfect for picnics, parties, make it an adult drink and laze by the beach.. Ahhh! How I love summer!! If you aren't doing any of the above(I feel ya), just make this lemonade and chill at home!!
Also, if you have kids or big babies aka husbands who dislike fruits, this is the easiest and subliminal way to include fruits in their diet. Or even better pour this into the Popsicle mold and freeze, you'll see them vanish in no time!! See 1 recipe, 2 ideas!! You can also try with strawberries, raspberries, watermelon..you name it!
