Honey, honey!

June 7, 2020

Honey, honey! . What’s a lovely summer day without some lemonade? Especially when it’s freshly squeezed! It’s full of nostalgia and smiles... because it’s sure to transport you to your childhood days when you spent a lazy summer day bicycling around the block with your friends, getting splashed by the occasional lawn sprinkler, while your laughs drowned the sound of bees buzzing by and when you got home, Mom had a pitcher full of fresh lemonade waiting to welcome you. That thought and memory made me twinkly eyed and happy all over. . Featured here is my honey lemonade... which has about 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemons, 3 to 4 cups of cold water, about 2 or 3 tablespoons of honey (depending on your taste) and a pinch of salt. Blend/stir it all together and serve topped with ice, slices of lemons and fresh mint sprigs. My mint came straight from the backyard, thanks to my green thumb husband. All in all, it’s the perfect refreshment for a beautiful summer day! . ***Tips: 1. You can mix up a few limes in here if you like that margarita sourness. 2. Stick the pitcher you are going to serve in into the freezer while you are squeezing the lemons. Helps for the lemonade to stay cold longer. 3. Spike it up with some vodka if you want to make a grownup beverage. . . . . . #lemonade #lemons #honeylemonade #summer #summervibes #summer2020 #summerdrinks #summerdays #sundayvibes #summersundays #beautifulday #outdoors #platedexpressions #homemade #damnthatsdelish #thenewhealthy #thrivemags #yummy #tasty #refreshing #refreshingdrink #alfresco #summerlove #homesweethome
