A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. Proverbs 11:25
May you enjoy a refreshing day, knowing you are a gift to others!
Today I am sharing a pretty simple recipe! I’ve been making homemade lemonade for many years now. It is simple to do. You control the sugar too! I have had many requests for this as well and I can’t have a family function anymore without it!
I always make plain lemonade but wanted to try Pink lemonade! I experimented with a few things and found cranberry juice to be the best. All you need is a small splash in your bottle and pitcher to get the pretty pink color AND it does NOT change the taste!
ENJOY!

Pink Lemonade
In a small saucepan combine; 1/3 cup sugar, 1 cup water and about 3 zest slices from a lemon. Bring to a boil and quickly turn it down to a low simmer for 15 minutes.
In a pitcher or bottle; combine the juice from 2 lemons, 3 cups of water, the sugar syrup (remove the zest strips and discard) and a splash of cranberry juice. Give it a taste, if you like a tart lemonade, add the juice of one more lemon. Shake or stir well and enjoy!
I purchase the mini bottles of cranberry juice. You use very little to make the lemonade pink.
