It’s hot out there today! Thankfully, we can all taste a little bit of respite in August 20, 2015, which marks Lemonade Day! The unofficial holiday proves that this tart yet sweet beverage is no longer reserved for pampered Southern ladies sighing and fanning themselves on wrap-around porches. So pour yourself a tall, cold glass and hunker down in the shade for the love of lemonade…

1. Perfect Lemonade

Let’s begin with a classic lemonade recipe you find at your grandmother’s house. Refreshing and sweet, with a little bit of sour.

2. Pink Lemonade

There’s regular old yellow lemonade for a lazy Sunday—and then there’s flirty pink lemonade for an energetic brunch with your girlfriends. Each has its place, and this pink lemonade calls for fun and adventure despite the fact that it’s sweltering outside.

3. Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade

Summertime and fresh strawberries go hand in hand. So it’s no surprise that a recipe for Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade is at the top of my sipping list! A perfectly mouth-watering balance between tart and sweet is created in each colorful sip. Use a thick straw to get a juicy bit in every slurp!
